Today, we pause to recognize Women’s Equality Day and pay tribute to the women activists who rocked the boat and changed the world forever by helping to pass the Nineteenth Amendment giving women the right to vote. At the Guitar Center Company, we want to acknowledge the women who changed the soundtrack of equality and celebrate the powerful voices of female musicians who have not only enriched our lives with their art, but also paved the way for women's equality. From the soulful melodies of Billie Holiday to the rebellious rock of Joan Jett, these women broke barriers, challenged norms, and inspired generations. Let’s honor and learn from these trailblazers. Here's to the women who used their talents to break down walls and build a future where all voices are heard equally. #LifeAtGCC

At the Guitar Center Company, we work hard and play hard – and not only musical instruments. Recently, our Distribution Centers in California and Indiana held summertime celebrations for Associates, providing time for these teams to connect with each other outside of the regular workday. In Rialto, CA – it was a special day to commemorate their 8th Anniversary with a delicious BBQ. Associates from our Distribution Center in Brownsburg, Indiana and their families were treated to a night of fun at a local entertainment center with laser tag mini golf, food and more! A good time was had by all. Check out the fun moments that were captured at these celebrations! #LifeAtGCC

All Carmen wanted for her 12th birthday was an electric guitar. She wrote her wish into a letter and sent it to her neighborhood #GuitarCenter in Roseville, CA. The Associates at the Roseville store were jazzed to make her wish come true and so much more. They threw Carmen a surprise birthday party, complete with decorations, cake, and of course, music! Oh, and don’t forget the topping on the cake, Guitar Center gave Carmen a pink Mitchell MD200 double-cutaway electric guitar. Happy birthday – and happy playing – to Carmen! #LifeAtGCC
