The Sea and Cake

The Sea and Cake is a pop/rock group with a pronounced jazz influence, which formed in 1994 in Chicago, Illinois. A bona fide supergroup despite the band not promoting themselves as such, each of The Sea and Cake’s members come from their own celebrated acts: Sam Prekop and Eric Claridge from Shrimp Boat, Archer Prewitt of The Coctails, and John McEntire of Tortoise. 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.
