Captain Bogg & Salty began as a pirate-themed, children’s concept CD by Kevin Hendrickson and Loren Hoskins in 1999. The band now includes five members with diverse backgrounds in musical theater, sketch comedy, and children’s theater. Filled to the brim with sea dog swagger and pirate dialect, the band’s theatrically driven sets are full of audience interaction and inspired-silliness. Their original pirate jigs, mermaid lullabies, and rock chanteys are written by the band members in styles from calypso and pop to galloping rock.
Press Quotes & Reviews
“PEGLEG TANGO As Johnny Depp proved, pirates and scurvy never lose their appeal. On this merrily wacky album, salty-dog sing-alongs that conjure the Monkees, Elvis Presley, and the Beach Boys are linked by buccaneer skits that wink and nod at Spike Jones and Monty Python. Here’s a yo-ho-ho and a bottle of rum for a disc that kids will memorize down to the last aargh.” – Entertainment Weekly (June 2005)
“This is not your average kids’ band!” – The New York Post
“The Admirals of High Seas High Jinx” – The Oregonian
“The most raucous noise on the Seven Seas.” – Willamette Week
“The finest all-ages pirate rock band anywhere” – The Portland Tribune
