Information and Biography
Yo ho ho and one hell of a show!
MAN OVER BOARD masterfully combines the medieval sounds of shanties, foc's'les, drinking songs, wake traditionals, patriotic nautical battle hymns and pirate influences from the 1600's to the 1800's with some great more recent styles and genres. They have a large quantity of original music & material that just plain rocks, while most of their material retains that traditional medieval nostalgia of the old world. Many of the musical scores are infused with an uplifting and underlying new age sound that gives it an entirely unique feel to be appreciated all over again in this day and age, by audiences of every sort and from all walks of life. This amazing group of talented young song writers/artists & stage worthy front men take great pleasure in modernizing old ballads and reviving the classical tradition of the ancient bards of yore. Piratey, punky, rockin' yet downright medieval! This is...
