Formed in the fall of
1993, The Sea and Cake's
eponymous debut lp, was
released in September of
1994. Nassau was
released in March of
1995. The Biz was the
bands third record in
just over one calender
year. It was recorded in
McEntire's own Soma
Studios and they recorded
the instruments in 3 days
mostly live. The vocals
were recorded by Prekop
alone in 5 days. On
Nassau the band
experimented heavily with
signal processing, on The
Biz they continue that
experimentation using
less common forms of
processing, more
sparingly. They used a
Roland space echo, EML
101, ARP 2600 as both
instruments as well as
manipulators. Recording
withstanding, The Biz
continues to showcase the
bands ability to mesh
together their unusual
blend of pop, soul and
jazz into one seamless
output.
