Today's Hits - S/T - New Vinyl 2017 Randy Records Pressing on Black Vinyl (Limited to 200!) - Chicago, IL Lo-Fi / Garage Rock

Today’sHits’ self-titled debut LP is being released on Randy Records this July, but the story really began over 6 years ago, when a young man by the name of James Swanberg came up with the completely brilliant and simultaneously idiotic idea to write, record, and upload a song once a day, everyday, in perpetuity. He gave this project the self-explaining title of “Today’sHits”, and uploaded his first song to his website, todayshits.tumblr.com, on March 20th 2011. And while most people would likely give up on such an foolish endeavor after a few weeks, or at most a few months, through a combination of perseverance and stubbornness, James kept up this ritual for over three years, writing 1037 songs without missing a day. He composed and recorded most of his songs while working as a clerk at the local liquor store – there was enough downtime during the 12-hour shifts for James to sneak off to use his “super computer,” as he calls his macbook, and record his daily composition.
