Singer Sam Prekop's breathy vocals have anchored the Sea & Cake's indie rock/jazz fusion over the course of the group's 14-year career. He and guitar player Archer Prewitt craft a breezy version of adult contemporary on their latest disc, Everybody. Prekop's Miles Davis cool is on full display as he practically sighs his vocals over John McEntire's (Tortoise) subtle drumming. Although Everybody is being touted as one of TS&C's more "rock" efforts to date, it basically offers the same tranquil codeine-and-honey tones of previous albums.
