Hi DJs! Here are the songs of the day on our website this week. It’s usually a variety of genres – everything from alt rock to classical, but this week it’s almost all Americana songs. Just a reminder: these are videos created by our sister stations around the country that we get to put on our website. It’s a great way to discover new music or see videos of musicians we know and love. Please let your listeners know about this feature, and tell them about the ones that fit your show’s format. Thanks!

If a video from your station is featured, it will appear on around 30 public media websites around the country in their “Song of the Day” video player. The following best practices will maximize the impact for your local audience. - Make sure you have the “Song of the Day” player embedded on your website. If it’s not currently embedded and you would like it to be, reach out to Mark for the embed code (mark@vuhaus.com). - If your station has a video featured on the “Song of the Day” player, the day of the feature is a great day to push listeners to your station website via on-air and socials, and to ask your featured artist to do the same. Here are the “Song of the Day” videos from NPR Live Sessions scheduled for this week: August 4 – August 8. *Song of the Day for August 4 - 8, 2025* *DATE* *ARTIST* *SONG* *STATION* *LINER NOTES* Aug 4 Rebecca Porter “No Evil” WNRN, Richmond An artist who creates her own brand of Appalachian honky tonk, Rebecca Porter performed at the Red Wing Roots Festival for WNRN.
