    This is one of those really cool shops located directly on Congress which gets a lot of pedestrian traffic. We've been wanting to come here for sometime, but since we don't live in the city center, it means that you'll be facing one of those parking kiosks to receive your credit card. This is a very spacious store that definitely has a great local musical flare and needless to say Willie Nelson is a key feature. The place has a great selection of T-shirts, jewelry, and even some instruments at the rear of the store, but no actual record albums. If you find yourself walking down Congress near 6th street, you should really stop in. And as the business owner points out, apparently I missed the record section.

    My new painting!

    I came into this location this past Saturday with another party while waiting for an ATX food tour. This was my first time at this location (although I have been meaning to get to the location for years). As my home is big on music, (with Thing One playing three instruments; tuba, guitar and double bass, Thing Two playing two instruments; piano and violin and your trusty old OCA playing one instrument; the violin for the last 30 + plus years). I just had to stop in and at least take a look around. After looking around for about 10 minutes, I decided on purchasing a painting. I selected the one that spoke to me the most which happened to be a painting of a lively scene in a club. It took a little effort to get the painting off the wall but it was worth the wait. I am pleased with the painting and the level of service I received. However, I did ask for a military discount and was advised that paintings were not subject to the discount. I do think this will be the first and last time I buy a piece from here as more than $500.00 for this piece is excessive. #supportlocal #supportthearts

    Looking for music related gifts? T-shirts with your favorite band? Coffee mugs with music related themes? Miniature guitars? Stickers? Jewelry? This store has it all and so much more. I could have spent hours looking through it as the selection was diverse and fun. I loved the area in the back with ukuleles and guitars. We didn't buy much (laying over in Austin for a few hours) but we really did enjoy visiting. Also enjoyed meeting "Louise" the house cat. Hope to return on another visit to Austin!

    Cool music store that also sells clothing, gifts, cat toys (?), as well as ukuleles and other instruments. (Mostly interested in the ukes, though!) I was walking to a show at the Paramount and was surprised that this place was open later. And it was decently busy inside! Friendly service.

    I think music connects us all, but if you're a music buff or know someone who is, then there is sure to be a connection up in here, up in here! I'm not that into the genre of Rock (which seems to be pretty popular here), but I spotted a few artists and groups that I did know and appreciate. Though not super diverse (in my opinion), I was happy to see some Black artists like Prince, Beyonce, Cardi B, and Michael Jackson featured. More genres and more races, please! This store features a lot of current and historic music celeb memorabilia, trinkets, gifts, clothing and collectibles. They also sell cool instruments, and it's just an overall fun store to browse! Ditch those gas station-like souvenir shops and grab something from here instead! Lots of Austin stuff! Happy browsing!

    Love this store. It is an actual music store in the back and fun, trinkets and souvenirs in the front. This store is not your typical junkies souvenir shop. Stop by and say hey to Louie as well.

    I love rhe selection of things in there I bought some knick knacks and I was happy. Large selection for the size.

    What a cool place.

    Looking for a cool gift idea for the music lover in your life?? Look no further than Wild About Music!! This shop is massive and full of fun music-themed knickknacks. Seeking graphic T's of your favorite band? They've got them. Artwork depicting your favorite musician? They've got it. Need: guitars? Ukuleles? Thumb pianos? Guitar straps? Piano socks? They have all of that and more. I initially wasn't certain of what gift I wanted to grab for my music-lover-person, but, after a lap or two around the place (JAMMING to the background music playing in the store) and the help of the super friendly staff (and their cat, Jeffery), I found exactly what I never knew I wanted!! Score! No pun intended. I'll be back for sure.

    See all

    Do they sell keyboards or pianos?

    They have a roll-up electronic keyboard, but the mainly focus on guitars and ukuleles here.
