Common Rotation is a three-piece folk/indie band out of Los Angeles. They write you a song a day (ish), and they make documentary films. (first link autoplays music) If you like your folk music with a side of bitter sarcasm, this one's for you. Common Rotation has toured with They Might Be Giants, and more recently with the Indigo Girls. Prior to their recent tour, they went across the country playing living rooms due to their frustration with Clear Channel. They have made a documentary film about their "Living Room Tour" which can be viewed on their website. (Click the Documentary link.) The band is comprised of Adam Busch (of Buffy fame), Eric Kufs (a strong singer/songwriter), and Jordan Katz.

"This is the story of when I re-wrote the Lotus Notes Formula Engine.... So here was I was, offered this position that I clearly wasn't qualified for. I had no experience with language runtimes or compilers, I knew very little about C and didn't know anything about C++, I had never dealt with platform byte ordering and packing and all the other issues associated with writing something for eight different operating systems, I had never even used proper version control. But none of that mattered to me. It seemed to me like an amazing opportunity and I would be doing exactly the kind of stuff I enjoy most..."

This trip will take you as far west as Idaho and as far east as your mind permits.
