Yellowbeard Da Pirate
Yellowbeard Da Pirate is fabulously well known in his own head. He’s traveled the high, low, medium & all the multi colored Seas & has enjoyed pillaging & larceny & murder & all the pirating associated behaviors that a swashbuckler can but has been landlocked ever since his incarceration for tax evasion about 200 years ago. He memorably struggles with memory issues but is happy to join us & is hoping someone can point him in the direction of the Ocean. He can’t remember where it is!
Live Music
Parlay
Parlay is a band based in Brunswick County. They play a variety of hits from the 80s to the 2000s. They often perform at local events and festivals, bring a lively mix of music to their audience.
Motley Tones
Helped by friends and fans, Motley Tones are now the region’s most popular pirate performing group, entertaining adults and children alike with their unique blend of classical and oft-times amusing sea shanties. Their music ranges from acapella harmonies to traditional “call and response” tunes to duets, solo ballads and parodies of popular tunes. All loosely tied to the “Golden Age of Piracy.” In live performance, they incorporate pieces of period garb and stories into their performance as well as just plain fun stuff.
