TOM MASONand the

BLUE BUCCANEERS

Tom Mason and the Blue Buccaneers are a wild band of accomplished Nashville musicians who play a rollicking mix of piratical sing-alongs, rousing historical rave-ups, afro-cuban tinged ballads, and

bluesy Irish jigs, dressed as pirates!

The Blue Buccaneers play with the fervor of the Pogues and the sensitivity of the Buena Vista Social Club. Their songs transport you to the wildest pub in Port Royal at the turn of the 18th century, their CDs are rowdy and evocative works that transcend any aspect of novelty that one might expect at first glance, and their showmanship and musicianship

make for a memorable performance.

“My friend Tom Mason is a one-off and so is his band The Blue Buccaneers. Great musicianship and songwriting. Funny, serious, insightful and hugely entertaining. What's not to love!?”

— Dobe Newton, President Country Music Associationof Australia, lead singer The Bushwackers “Tom Mason isn't just a songwriter, singer and

guitar virtuoso, he's a terrific entertainer... his pirate songs have choruses that the audience can bellow along with, the best way to enjoy pirate music”

— John Baur, co-creator of “Talk Like a Pirate Day”

“Mason’s as talented at tale-spinning as he is at fret-work”

— Dave Marsh, Rock & Rap Confidential

“The Blue Buccaneers were definitely a big hit with the crowd… the perfe� entertainment for a Tall Ships Event!”

— Bob Desh, Executive Dire�or, Door County Maritime Museum
