REMINDER: The Sea & Cake | Coming to Burlington | Oct 1

Back in the 90's, I was a nutter for post-rock tunesmiths The Sea & Cake and their loungy yet melodic sound. However, then after their first three albums, they started experimenting with electronic sounds and I lost faith in each subsequent release. However, this year, The Sea & Cake seems to have rediscovered their early sound with their latest album, Everybody. If you were a fan of those early albums, I think you'll agree that these new tracks would fit in nicely with any of those discs. The result is that it feels both fresh and familiar.

Even better, the Chicago quartet will be playing at Higher Ground next Monday, Oct 1. I saw them once at Tramps in NYC in the late 90's and it was a good show. They rocked a bit harder in concert than they do on their albums. I'm not sure if that's still the case but it should be a good show.
