For those of you who love both local and national music – especially those who don’t make it to many live shows – Daytrotter is definitely the place to go. The popular music blog started in Illinois in 2007, and the idea is that bands stop in for a day and record four songs that are then placed up on the website. Daytrotter posts a handful of bands each week, and they’ve recorded bands like Dashboard Confessional, Death Cab for Cutie, Akron/Family, Aimee Mann, Best Coast, Cold War Kids, Deerhoof, Dirty Projectors, Fleet Foxes, and MGMT. Well over the years Daytrotter has also gotten its hands on some of our acts, like Bon Iver, Daredevil Christopher Wright, Laarks, Megafaun, Meridene, Peter Wolf Crier, S. Carey, and GAYNGS. And now we can add singer-songwriter Savannah Smith to the list. The former Stout student will appear on the site sometime in September, so check it out.
