Wheels

CAKE

A dusty, five-track collection of radio sessions and covers. Stripped-back basslines and mariachi trumpets meet a skeptical, country-inflected shuffle.

March 3, 2005 · Columbia

Find on Amazon

A dry, rhythmic shuffle through heartbreak and highway miles with a skeptical grin.

Moments Worth Listening For
The way the trumpet mimics a weeping steel guitar on the Buck Owens cover.
The rhythmic, percussive delivery of the word 'silk' during the Daria session.
The dead-stop silence between the dry bass notes and the vocal entry on No Phone.
