THE CAKE was formed at Steve Paul's THE SCENE in New York City,
circa 1966. We were managed by Greene & Stone, recorded 2 LPs for
Decca Records at Goldstar Studios, Hollywood,CA.
At that time we were with the William Morris agency and our agent
was Herb Nanas. We wrote a lot of our own music and sang it
acapella to anyone who would listen!
We have many musician friends from those days, especially Jimi
Hendrix (RIP), Kevin Ayers, Eric Burden, Robbie Robertson - to
name a few.
Barbara Morillo has continued to sing with other groups,
including BARBARA MORILLO & THE SHRINE. Jeanette Jacobs-Wood sang with GINGER BAKER's AIRFORCE, THE NIGHTTRIPPERS and DR JOHN Chelsea Lee sang with GINGER BAKER's AIRFORCE, TETSU YAMAUCHI, DR JOHN, THE NIGHTTRIPPERS
and many more.
THE CAKE sang background on "Why Are We Sleeping" on THE SOFT
MACHINE's first album. Chelsea was in a film produced by
Peter Yarrow called YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT and sings "I Got You Babe"
with Tiny Tim while THE BAND is playing the music.
