The Cape May are a musical act from Calgary, Alberta. Formed in 2003 by Clinton St. John (vocals, guitars) and Jeff Macleod (drums, guitars, keys, backing vocals) the band released their first album Central City May Rise Again on Flemish Eye (home to fellow Calgarian Chad VanGaalen) in 2005. The band's lineup is now rounded out by multi-instrumentalist Matt Flegel. Their 2006 album Glass Mountain Roads, the band enlisted acclaimed engineer Steve Albini. In 2006 they were invited by Nina Nastasia to be her backing band on tour across the US and Europe, opening on many of the dates.
The songs are centred on the poetic lyrics of vocalist Clinton St. John, and are lyrical stories of urban dystopia and a culture on the brink.
