Treasure Fleet, sometimes billed as The Treasure Fleet, is a Chicago-based band featuring members of The Lawrence Arms, The Arrivals, and Smoking Popes.[1] Originally formed in 2009 by Isaac Thotz and Neil Hennessy, the two added Dave Merriman and Mike Oberlin and played a few shows as a four piece before adding Eli Caterer as a lead guitarist.[2] Their sound has been influenced by bands of the ‘60s and ‘70s.[3]
Treasure Fleet played The Fest in 2014 along with Paint It Black, The City on Film, and Iron Chic.[4] The same year they played a four night stint with Alkaline Trio at Metro Chicago.[5] They participated in Recess Records' 25th anniversary tour.[6]
Their debut album, Cocamotion, was released in 2012.[1] Their sophomore effort, Future Ways, was released later the same year.[7] In 2015, they released The Sun Machine on Recess Records.[8]
