History

Established in 1924.

Sam Ash is known as «The World’s Favorite Music Store,» but they didn’t arrive at that title overnight. The Sam Ash saga is a classic business story. It encompasses the American dream, retaining the basic concepts of a family-​run business even today. From very simple beginnings the company has grown to forty-​five music superstores.

We have been open for over 88 years, and we are still a family owned buisness! Starting out in 1924, Sam Ash Music store has grown to be one of the largest music stores in the Country. We went from just selling band and orchestra instruments to ProAudio, DJ, Guitars, Drums to now music lessons!

Meet the Business Owner

Sam A.

Business Owner

Sam Ash (Ashkynase) was born in Austria and traveled to the United States in 1907 at the age of 10, the same year that his future bride, Rose Dinin, left her native Russia at the age of 3 to settle in Brooklyn. Sam, a violinist, set out to make a career in music. After playing with various groups Sam decided to strike out with a band of his own. The Sam Ash Orchestra would entertain at weddings and dances playing the popular music of the time. After Sam and Rose were married, the new Mrs. Ash decided that a musician’s life was too precarious so the young couple decided to open their own business based upon what Sam knew best — music. Having very little savings the couple was forced to pawn Rose’s engagement ring for $ 400 in order to make the down payment on what was to become the first Sam Ash Music store.
