Sam Prekop Casts A Silhouette
Sam Prekop leads the famed Chicago band The Sea & Cake--who recently played a special one-off concert at Lincoln Hall--but he's also well known for his cool solo work. This fall he released his first solo album in five years titled Old Punch Card. While the record is an unexpected departure from anything we've heard from him, falling more into the avant garde category, "The Silhouettes" makes a perfect soundtrack for this charming cartoon directed by Jordan Kim (of Yo Gabba Gabba and Adult Swim's Tom Goes to the Mayor animation fame). It's a wonderful lighthearted diversion if you're stuck in a quiet office counting down the days until Christmas vacation.
