Cass McCombs announces the surprise release of Seed Cake On Leap Year, via Domino, alongside reissues of 2002’s Not The Way EP, 2003’s A, and 2005’s PREfection via 4AD. Seed Cake On Leap Year is a collection of early, previously unreleased music recorded at Jason Quever's apartment at 924 Fulton in San Francisco while McCombs was living in Berkeley between 1999 and 2000. In tandem with the release, Cass presents videos for ‘Anchor Child‘, ‘Baby’, and ‘I’ve Played This Song Before’. Everything those have come to love about Cass McCombs can be heard on Seed Cake On Leap Year. Already he had mastered the swooning, graceful melodies that seem transplanted from timeless songs across jukeboxes and transistor radios throughout America; same goes for his heady, gnarled way with conversational language that can bend righteous truths into riddles. “Songs are sung every day/So what can I say to find my own way?,” he announces in the opening line of “I’ve Played This Song Before.” And with those words he charts his own path, always rooted in tradition but facing the unknown.
