UPCOMING SHOWS!
Sam Prekop and his outfit The Sea and Cake are part of a movement from the 1990's which combined jazz improvisation with modern day electronics and synthesizers to add a certain element of modernism to an antiquated form of musicianship. Within the records and live shows from the Sea and Cake, the jazz combo feel is ever present but stretches off into alternative dimensions with the new technology. See The Sea and Cake at the Local 506 in Chapel Hill this Friday November 11.
Australian indie synth pop outfit Architecture in Helsinki appeared on the radar in 2007 as part of a fresh musical genre which meshed an array of instruments, both musical and electronic, which provided a danceable form of pop music combined with strong songwriting, pushing them far above many other groups attempting to pull off the same magic. AIH made a big splash in US putting them on tour with acts as big as Talking Heads front man David Byrne, Yo La Tango, and Belle and Sebastian. Catch Architecture in Helsinki at Cat's Cradle Monday November 14.
