The Dodos (featuring Magik Magik Orchestra) Daytrotter Session

On a visit to Daytrotter this past February, The Dodos performed alternate versions of 3 songs from their 2008 breakthrough album, Visiter. The tracks were recorded in a studio in the basement of the Mosser Hotel in San Francisco with the Magik Magik Orchestra, a collective of classically trained Bay Area musicians. The biggest transformation by far was on “Ashley”, which here is made up entirely of strings and backing vocals by a 4-piece women’s choir. Stream the entire session on Daytrotter.
