The Seaport Six: Two Door Cinema Club & Cake
Thursday, Jun 14, 2012 5:00p
Bank of America Pavilion
Boston,
MA
What was supposed to be simply a killer bill of six indie-rock bands has tunred into a bittersweet moment to mourn WFNX's demise. Clear Channel bought the alternative rock station last month, and the Seaport Six - feauturing Cake, Grouplove, Delta Spirit, Two Door Cinema Club, Reptar, and Stephie Coplan & the Pedestrians - is among 'FNX's final special event before it goes off the air in July. - James Reed, Globe Staff

Cake
Best-known for their ubiquitous hit "The Distance," Cake epitomized the postmodern, irony-drenched aesthetic of ‘90s geek rock. Their sound freely mixed and matched pastiches of widely varying genres -- white-boy funk, hip-hop, country, new wave pop, jazz, college rock, and guitar rock -- with a particular delight in the clashes that resulted....

Grouplove
Standing firmly on the middle ground between the quirky, staccato attack of Modest Mouse and the spirited, arena-ready roar of Arcade Fire, Los Angeles-based indie rock outfit Grouplove came to fruition in the late 2000s around the talents of Hannah Hooper, Christian Zucconi, Sean Gadd, Ryan Rabin, and Andrew Wessen....

Reptar
With a sound that's as exuberant as it is infectious, Athens, Georgia dance-pop quartet Reptar have been scuffing up dancefloors since they formed in 2008. Featuring the talents of Andrew McFarland, Ryan Engelberger, Graham Ulicny, and William Kennedy, the band brings danceable electronic rock into the modern era with a sound that evokes the classic synth-drenched funk of Prince and densely layered dance-pop of bands like Passion Pit....
