mrgoodboy w/ Liively
Mr. Goodboy is a Los Angeles-based creative agency specializing in creating unique music experiences using mobile vinyl record carts. The company positions itself as RaaS (Retail as a Service), offering retail as a service that makes vinyl culture fresh and accessible to today’s audience.
Concept and Inspiration
The concept of Mr. Goodboy was born in 2016 when co-founder Carson Lere, inspired by the movie Blade Runner, imagined how people would find and listen to music in a dystopian future Los Angeles. He envisioned a traditional street cart where people could discover music. Co-founder Ryan Wilson, a passionate vinyl collector and musician, was also inspired by the mobile cart culture in Los Angeles and Japanese vinyl shops, as well as traditional “listening booths” in old record stores.
Products and Services
Mr. Goodboy's mobile music carts are more than just record players—they are sound systems and retail stores in one. They are used at a variety of events, including corporate gatherings, art gallery exhibitions, parties, and pop-up stores. Each cart is unique and handcrafted, with the option to customize them with logos or branding elements. The carts run on batteries for up to 8 hours, providing high-quality sound and personalized listening experiences through headphone stations.
