Cake

Extra Info

Paramount Theatre Sun., May 11, 7:00pm

On a cold rainy day, nothing perks my mood like Cake. The Sacramento alt-rockers’ Motorcade of Generosity and Fashion Nugget played heavily during my angst-ridden high-school days, and they still show up with regularity in my normal iPod rotation. I also like their cover of “The Guitar Man” better than the original by Bread. Front man John McCrea’s affinity for wordplay and Knopfler-ish vocals gives the band a distinct, joyful sound that I for one draw on heavily when spring begins (if in name only). And whaddaya know, speaking of springtime, speaking of covers, speaking of terrible weather . . . Cake is touring behind B-Sides and Rarities, which includes songs made famous by Sinatra, Barry White, George Jones, and even Kenny Rogers. Because “Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love to Town” never gets old. Paramount Theatre, 911 Pine St., 467-5510, www.theparamount.com. $32. 7 p.m. JESSE FROEHLING
