Nightcaps are an American lounge band from Seattle, Washington. The band was most active from 1995 through 2000, but they continue to play occasionally in the Pacific Northwest. Nightcaps were an integral part of the mid-1990s lounge music resurgence that included bands such as Combustible Edison, Squirrel Nut Zippers and Love Jones. The Nightcaps were known as one of the few renascent lounge bands to avoid irony and kitsch. In addition to the torch, jazz and lounge influences that typically characterized the genre's revival, Nightcaps also incorporated Wrecking Crew pop, Memphis soul and garage rock into their sound. Seattle's Nightcaps released several singles, four full-length albums (including a best-of compilation released in Japan and a live CD of the band's performance on KEXP's "Live Room") and toured extensively throughout Western United States.
