The Sea Nymphs is an album recorded as a side project by Tim and Sarah Smith, and William D. Drake of the band Cardiacs, originally known as Mr and Mrs Smith and Mr Drake. It was originally only available through the fan club and at concerts, but was later released generally as a CD in 1992.

This quote is taken from the insert:

The rumours that three key members of Cardiacs both past and present, namely Tim Smith, Sarah Smith and William D. Drake had been secretly recording material under the name of "The Sea Nymphs" for a new album soon to be released through the Alphabet Business Concern have been proved to be true. The facts of the matter were brought to our attention by the trusted services of our hirelings and we have deemed it appropriate at this time to reveal these interesting findings.
