CAKE
About This Event
Cake, best known for their hit "The Distance," became iconic in the '90s with their blend of quirky, genre-defying sounds, including rock, funk, hip-hop, and jazz. Their music was marked by ironic detachment, dry humor, and satirical lyrics, often delivered in a speak-sing style by frontman John McCrea. The band found success with their second album, Fashion Nugget, and the smash hit "The Distance," leading to several more radio hits. Despite lineup changes and critics’ mixed opinions on their sardonic style, Cake continued to enjoy commercial success with albums like Prolonging the Magic, Comfort Eagle, and Pressure Chief. Their unique, low-key approach and independent spirit kept them a significant presence in alternative rock for decades.
