Originally formed as a somewhat antagonistic answer to grunge, CAKE’s defiant self-reliance and lucid yet ever-inventive music has made them a nation-state unto themselves with no evident peers in sound or perspective. CAKE’s most recent album, Showroom of Compassion, debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top 200 Album Chart and was touted as “deadpan brilliance” by The New Yorker Magazine. While seamlessly blending numerous genres and influences, CAKE issues forth a sound and vision unlike any other band.

CAKE is currently at work on their ninth album due for release during autumn 2025.

Saenger Theatre New Orleans

Originally formed as a somewhat antagonistic answer to grunge, alternative rock icons CAKE are peerless in sound and perspective. Known for platinum-selling albums and ubiquitous hits like "The Distance" and "Short Skirt/Long Jacket," CAKE has maintained their status as one of music’s most distinctive and inventive bands since emerging from California’s club scene in the early '90s. With the successor to their Billboard number-one album Showroom of Compassion set for release this fall, CAKE brings their signature sound—characterized by deadpan vocals, punchy trumpet lines, and satirical lyrics—to the stage for an unforgettable performance.
