Southern California’s premiere pirate jam band (look for them on tour in England soon, with possible tours coming to the Netherlands and the Caribbean).  Based in the desert, this acoustically-based 10 piece band takes old traditional sea music, pirate ditties, drinking songs, and Irish folk music, and updates it, along with originals, for a danceable, accessible time on the foredeck.
Music fit for a party - a boarding party!
