The Captain’s Beard are one of the UK’s most seasoned folk-rock and sea shanty groups. Playing over a hundred shows a year, they’ve carried their tales of the sea from rowdy taverns to large festival stages.
Their performances are energetic, heartfelt, and full of mischief — part concert, part voyage, and never the same twice. Expect immaculate harmonies, wild fiddle and accordion duels, epic drums, and raucous stories that will leave audiences laughing, singing, and maybe even questioning their taste in mermaids….
