When the Vermont-based Guppyboy relocated to Brooklyn, a change in name as well as address was warranted. Described in the contradictory terms of both "Neo-psychedelic" and "Pop," The Essex Green bring their mature sound to light on their third full-length album Cannibal Sea.

Cannibal Sea has been described as "incorporating the country rock mood of The Byrds, the Greenwich Village balladry of Fred Neil, and the acoustic pop harmonizing of the Mamas and The Papas."

Songs performed: "This Isn't Farm Life," "Rue De Lis," and "Penny & Jack."
