Friend turned me on to them a couple of years ago, and I was there for their 1st CD release party at The Bourbon. Will be there to pick up their second disc (finally) on Saturday.

Part Irish folk, part sea shanty, part punk. Great fun, talented lot. Singer is formerly of the Ontario-based Siobhan. When he came west, he formed The Dreadnoughts. If you like Irish-punk infused pirate music, they're the band for you!
