The Sea And Cake - "The Sea And Cake" (1994)














The Sea and Cake is an indie rock band with a pronounced jazz influence, which formed in the mid-1990s in Chicago out of the ashes of local bands The Coctails and Shrimp Boat. The group's name came from a willful reinterpretation (in the wake of an accidental miscomprehension) of "The C in Cake", a song by Gastr del Sol.

Their debut is a breath of fresh air, an utterly distinctive and innovative work incorporating a fascination with Afro-Caribbean rhythms and textures. The album simply glows - Prekop's dry vocals and free-associative lyrics skip along a shimmering and lushly pastoral backdrop that nimbly fuses pop, soul, jazz, and even prog rock.

Something for warm and comfy afternoons at home - avoiding the cold world...
