Shrimp Boat was an American rock band formed in Chicago, Illinois in 1987. After the band dissolved in 1993, Sam Prekop and Eric Claridge formed The Sea and Cake.[1] Ian Schneller and Tom Jasek went on to form Falstaff.[2] Schneller's experience with the band would also lead him to create Specimen Products.[3]
