Crate-Digging in Downtown Batavia
Kiss the Sky is an independent record store built for people who still believe in flipping through the bins.
Walk in and you'll find walls of new vinyl, deep crates of used and rare LPs, turntables spinning behind the counter, and the kind of staff who'll talk you into a record you didn't know you needed. This is a shop for crate-diggers, first-timers, and everyone in between.
Founded by music lover Steve Warrenfeltz in 1996, Kiss the Sky has been a Fox Valley fixture for nearly three decades, and we're proud to be part of downtown Batavia — a place to slow down, drop the needle, and rediscover why music sounds better on wax. New releases land all the time, the dollar bins are always worth a dig, and we're always buying collections. Come hang out and bring your ears.
