Les Claypool’s “SeaPop” Releases Animated Ad For The World’s First “Soothing Soda”


Les Claypool of Primus fame and who has produced the opening theme songs for Robot Chicken and South Park, has released a new line of soda called “SeaPop” that promises to be the first “soothing soda’. Les explains how he came up with the concept for the new soft drink:

Tame the rough seas within. Years ago I accidentally ruptured my inner ear scuba diving off the California coast and since that day I’ve found myself a bit more susceptible to the adverse effects of motion. Not liking how most of the over-the-counter medications made me feel, I sought out alternatives. In 1945, my grandfather, petty officer third class Glen Claypool, was a landing craft pilot in the South Pacific. Just after his 98th birthday I asked him what he and the soldiers he ferried to the beaches did about sea sickness. He promptly quipped, “Well, you just hung yer’ head over the side and let her go!” Well, I don’t like to “let her go” so it became my notion to create a tasty, natural, soothing beverage to help tame the rough seas within. With the guidance of an herbalist friend and utilizing the picky palate of my soda-slurping teenage son, we blended ginger with other traditional, stomach-soothing herbs as well as a pinch of cane sugar. We then added some bubbles for sparkle …Voilá! SeaPop was born. SeaPop’s unique flavor profile and subtle sweetness is a taste to behold. In a world saturated with energy drinks, SeaPop is here to help mellow things out. Ahoy & Enjoy, Les Claypool For more information please visit www.seapop.com
