Album Description
Shrimp Boat was a phenomenal Chicago band that made music from the mid 80s to the mid 90s. Their ability to voluminously manifest new songs from the air around them left listeners awestruck. Three albums were released in their lifetime: great, beautiful documents all, though they arent even the half of it.
Ian Schneller, Sam Prekop, David Kroll, Eric Claridge and Brad Wood were Shrimp Boat. They recorded everything they ever performed, and this set manifests the "mega money shot" culled from over 400 hours of unreleased tapes 16-tracks made at Idful Music, 4-tracks made on Archer Street, live stage performances and radio broadcasts. Something Grand is a three-disc collection featuring 51 tracks and a 50-page booklet packed with photos, show flyers and two sets of comprehensive liner notes. Plus, the first 2000 copies contain a bonus full-length fourth disc of further exclusive materialwhoa!
Post-Shrimp Boat hype: Sam Prekop is the principal force behind The Sea And Cake, which formed in the wake of Shrimp Boats demise. Eric Claridge is also a founding member of The Sea and Cake. Ian Schneller rocked first with Falstaff and has since been incredibly productive with Specimen Products, designing and constructing handcrafted stringed instruments. Brad Wood left SB to produce Liz Phairs epochal Exile In Guyville; he has also worked with Tortoise, The Sea And Cake, Red Red Meat and countless others further refining/defining a renowned era of "the Chicago sound." David Kroll left the band to focus on his exquisite painting. His work is featured on the cover of (and elsewhere on) Something Grand.
