Follow the Sons of the Buccaneers in Sailors' Ditties, Shipboard Chanties, Bawdy Ballads, Maritime Melodies, Nautical Nonsense, Vacuous Verses, Shaggy Dog Stories, and your voices and instruments. Come early for dinner.
Sons of the Buccaneers was born circa 1994 of members of Skip Henderson's famous 'Starboard Watch' after Skip cast off to sail down to Panama and through the Canal.
The Sons of the Buccaneers have appeared at Quinn's Lighthouse on the Oakland Riviera (Alameda Estuary) for years and have been popular at many Bay Area yacht clubs, nautical events, and the National Maritime Museum's Festivals of the Sea.
The Sons of the Buccaneers are Alan Lochhead, an animated virtuoso concertina artist and a classical stand-up bassist who sings harmonies; Jim Nelson, a well traveled folkie who sings clear strong leads (and been known to yodel)who picks a long necked 5 string banjo; Ruup, a genuine Dubliner whose soft haunting Irish pennywhistle melodies and lilting solos bring tears; Brian Theriot, an award winning fiddling fool whose nimble licks and bright fills kick the music up just another spicy notch; and Mordecai, who contributes lead vocals while his 12 string guitar rings out the group's driving rhythms.
Their music is exciting and infectious, and you'll want to be singing along, so grab a Buccaneers' Hymnal© at this fun event and join in the music of sailors at work and at play, at sea and ashore.
