Woods Daytrotter Session Is Way Better Than We Expected
- story Sam Hockley-Smith
Along with fall comes a million opportunities to shuffle through the Woods back catalog. Although we’re partial to the newest record, it still can’t touch personal classic At Rear House, which gets busted out pretty much as soon as the thermometer hits 58 degrees. Not to discount Songs of Shame too much, but these Daytrotter sessions are much more related to those older Woods jams. They’re sparse, a little lonelier and a little more desolate, guitarist/singer Jeremy Earl’s falsetto hovering alien-like over the entire thing. If we had no morals and a lot more money, we’d bootleg these onto vinyl and go sell them next to the dude that sells bubbles and copies of the Criminal Minded Deluxe Edition outside of our office.

Video Chat with Range Life Ladies
- story THE FADER
Go to Daytrotter right now to talk live on video to Dri and Suzannah Johannes, both on Range Life Records, the Lawrence, Kansas label we featured in our current issue. Sounds like a weird late night infomercial, true, but these girls are both worth knowing. And if you miss the talk talk, you can check back in to Daytrotter for the session they’re recording tonight for the site in Rock Island, Illinois, and if you live in/on Rock Island (don’t we all?), catch Dri and Suzannah at, ready?, HUCKLEBERRY’S PIZZA.
