New York emo act Daytrader have parted ways with their frontman, Tym. To coincide with the announcement, the band is streaming the last song they recorded with him, entitled “Rita,” which you can stream here.
Here’s a statement from Tym:
So it goes. Another band succumbs to the ups & downs of rock n roll. Personal and creative differences have come to a head and have made it so I cannot finish the current tour Daytrader is on. I have no malice towards anyone in the band and I wish Gary, Matt, Derrick, and Robert the best. I think they are going to make music together in the future and I’m sure whatever they do will be great.
thanks to everyone who let us sleep on their floor, helped us make our records, sang along to my stories, and to anyone who cared about this little rock band. It meant the world to me
…but I’m sure I’ll see you again
