Good God, pirate chanteys.

 

Pirates of The Black Swan are a band that sings original pirate chanteys in full pirate costume. Oddly enough this music is quite good for what it is, I especially liked Shang’hai Jane. The music almost, but not quite, has a Jimmy Buffet feel, if Buffet sung about pirates. The band is unsigned at the moment but with the resurgence in the interests of everything pirate that may change. In the meantime, if you’re a big fan of pirates or have a pirate themed party, follow the link for booking information or purchasing an album.

Captain Bad Jack: Lead Vocals, Lead Guitar, Keyboards
