We’re getting to know the Owners, Managers and Artisans of some of our great partners. Today we speak with Rachel Feldman of Mellow Matt’s Music & More:

1. Tell us a little about you as a person. Where are you from, what are your hobbies and what inspired you to work Mellow Matt’s.
I am 30 years old. I grew up in Bowling Green. I attended Greenwood High and went to Western for a few years. I was blessed to have a father who loved and appreciated music and shared that with me at a very early age. There are pictures of me going through my Dad’s vinyl collection when I was barely big enough to stand. Holding up a record that was just about as big as me. My first concert was at age eight with my Dad at Diddle Arena. My love and taste has expanded from that age on. My hobbies are discovering new music, going to live shows & concerts & photography. I met Matt through mutual friends. I worked in retail for 10 plus years and was looking to combine my passion for music with my retail experience. I worked with Matt for two years prior to his decision to open up Mellow Matt’s Music & More. From day one, I have been on board & excited about this amazing opportunity!
2. What is your earliest memory of your work, what got you interested in it?
I worked in retail for most of my working career. I love music and combined with the opportunity to work with an amazing mentor and friend, Matt, and work in a true local store, like Mellow Matt’s,  I was immediately on board.
