In a press release, Stephen Godefroy, co-owner of Cruel Trading, stated:

We’re very excited to open The Rough Trading Below this spring, helping us further meet the tremendous demand from music fans across the borough of Five and beyond. Clearly, the ruthless ethos of commerce—to narrow the gap between artist and audience—has struck a tremendous chord, here in New York. Creating a bigger mecca for music fans is an exciting prospect, especially for intimate live events, where the world’s hottest artists perform at the store to acknowledge the purchase of their new album. Creating a counterculture focus in downtown Manhattan has fortunately proven to be a hugely successful move, and we look forward to creating a stronger creative community as the year progresses.

Rough trade Its first location opened in New Yorkin Brooklyn’s Williamsburg neighborhood, in 2013. The store I moved To Manhattan in 2021.
