A one-of-a-kind music collection

With a 30-foot record wall with Eggleston Works speakers and a 500-album vinyl record collection, all connected to Memphis in some way, our listening lounge bar, 8 & Sand, will be the place to immerse yourself in what Memphis is all about. Curated playlists, live DJ’s and a hospitable staff will make The Central Station your “go-to” for any night of the week.

Enjoy the sounds of the station from anywhere in the world

In Memphis, everyone knows someone in a band, but not every band is known outside of Memphis. At The Central Station, we seek to celebrate and showcase not only the famous hits Memphis is known for, but also the more obscure songs and collections that only the most dedicated vinyl collector would know. With our playlist collections, we give you a small taste of the more than 20,000 song titles we have in our Listening Lounge. We encourage you to look for a new favorite song and then come to Memphis and experience it firsthand in the Living Room of South Main...The Central Station Memphis.

JONE$ has been DJing and crate digging since he could walk. Born downriver in New Orleans and raised just north of Memphis, he learned his trade from the greats that he considers his “Mount Rushmore” of the DJ scene: Dante Carfagna, Cut Chemist, DJ Shadow, Mr. Dibbs, and Eothen Alapatt With Carfagna and Luke Sexton, JONE$ cofounded the now-legendary Memphis label, committing over ten 45s and a full-length album to vinyl. Jone$ and Carfagna collaborated on the brilliant and mysterious 17-song black rock compilation Chains & Black Exhaust, which was released sans liner notes or track listing to critical acclaim in 2003. In 2017, JONE$ released a mixtape of 80’s sweet soul & funk on the Los Angeles record label Hobo Camp Records. Today, his number one gig is his family and leading The Central Station’s very own Memphis music experience.
