Face Candy was an American improvisational jazz rap group by led rapper Eyedea in Saint Paul, Minnesota.
Bates, (also of Eyedea's rock band Carbon Carousel), bassist Casey O'Brien, and local rappers Kristoff Krane (also of Abzorber), Carnage, and Mazta I.
However the Eyedea and Friends shows actually consisted entirely of extended freestyles with freely improvised instrumental backing.
Carnage and Mazta I left in 2006 reducing the group to a four-man line up they continued to perform and record new material.
This album was recorded in two days at the Winterland studios and one night in front of an audience at Black Dog Cafe in Saint Paul.
