That's How It Sounded In The Beginning

 


The Sea And Cake is a Chicago-based band whose music can be described as jazz-influenced post-rock that incorporates electronic elements into its arrangements. Singer and guitarist Sam Prekop and bassist Eric Claridge start a new musical project together after their band Shrimp Boat breaks up, bringing in Tortoise drummer John McEntire to join them.

And in the broadest sense, their music follows in their footsteps. Jazz-influenced post-rock with a healthy dose of pop. Floating guitars dominate the elaborate compositions, which always sound extremely relaxed and unexcited. With their debut, The Sea and the Cake recorded a powerful debut album that set a milestone for this type of music, which still sounds fresh even after several decades.
