Captain Bogg & Salty
Biography
Formed in 1999, Captain Bogg & Salty is a band of six musical pirates from Portland whose costumed act blends original music with humor and history. Pirate jigs, mermaid lullabies, and rock & roll sea chanteys are interspersed with nautical advice and humor for buccaneers of all ages. And even though Captain Bogg & Salty’s songs are fun to dance to, audiences may find themselves “accidentally educated” on topics ranging from the pirates’ monetary system (Pieces of Eight) to preventative medicine (prevent Scurvy—eat a lime!).
