From what I understand, BOAT began as a basement dream of one D. Crane when he
moved back to Seattle from a miserable stint in Chicago. Initially armed with
good friends/cheap guitars/cheap microphones/a half broken Wurlitzer/a squeaky
drumset/a few melodicas/pizza/burritos/fragile egos/and diet soda. It has since
blossomed into a reality of good friends/a brother in law/better guitars/more
cheap microphones/calzone and pizza/burritos/a half fixed Wurlitzer/a half
broken theremin/a non squeaking drumset/still relatively fragile egos/a few
cheap keyboards/and ridiculous amounts of diet soda and hand claps.

This dream began taking shape with the release of a handmade album and EP "Life
is a Shipwreck," and "After All." After several trips to the Paper Zone and
Kinkos the band found themselves selling out of their homemade hand crafted
albums and EPs as they began playing shows from Vancouver to San Francisco. Be
it a house show or a biker bar the band is known for never playing the same show
twice and never leaving the stage without sweat soaked shirts.

BOAT's current lineup is the epitome of sloppy/poppy three piece rock. It
features J. Goodman playing maniacal drum fills/tasteful tambourines/shakers and
bells/and keyboards/all this while shouting backup vocals and la las/M. McKenzie
playing McCarteney-esque bass and guitar as well as having the most silky smooth
backup vocals in all of music/ and D. Crane playing guitars and keyboards and
shouting and singing lyrics about lanterns, rainbow shoelaces, his hatred of
Chicago, and ninjas. The touring lineup of BOAT features Ian Bone of Sacramento,
CA as the utility man.

They have put together a 17 song collection of their finest recorded moments
entitled "Songs That You Might Not Like." The album features newly recorded
versions of songs from their first two homemade releases as well as several new
unreleased songs.

Recorded in basements/living rooms and one very structurally questionable
warehouse in Seattle, "Songs That You Might Not Like" has something for
everyone. It has clapping/snapping/whistling/guitar solos/saxophone sounding
accordians/bleeping keyboards/distorted piano/oohs/la la's/shouting/singing/even
some broken theremin sounds. These songs are guaranteed to get stuck in your
head and make you feel cooler than you really are.
