Released in 2001, "Everyday" is the fourth studio album by the Dave Matthews Band. The album marked a significant departure from the band's earlier work, incorporating more electronic and pop influences, as well as a greater emphasis on the contributions of individual band members. 

One of the most notable features of "Everyday" is the prominent use of drum machines and other electronic effects, which give many of the songs a more modern and polished sound. This is particularly evident on tracks like "What You Are" and "I Did It," both of which feature infectious grooves and catchy choruses that are sure to get stuck in your head. 

At the same time, "Everyday" also features some of the band's most introspective and emotional songwriting to date. Tracks like "The Space Between" and "Dreams of Our Fathers" deal with themes of love, loss, and the passage of time, and showcase the band's talent for creating powerful and affecting music. 

Another standout feature of "Everyday" is the increased role played by individual band members, particularly violinist Boyd Tinsley and keyboardist Butch Taylor. Both musicians contribute significantly to the album's sound, bringing their own unique perspectives and styles to the mix. 

Despite the many changes and departures from the band's earlier work, "Everyday" remains a fan favorite and a testament to the Dave Matthews Band's enduring talent and creativity. With its mix of catchy pop hooks, poignant lyrics, and powerful performances, it's an album that is sure to stand the test of time and continue to inspire and move listeners for years to come.
