The Motley Tones

The Motley Tones washed ashore in 2010 and have been entertaining crowds ever since. Helped by friends and fans, they 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. They are known throughout the mid-Atlantic region both for their highly interactive street shows as well as their enthusiastic stage shows. This dynamic group sings madrigals for the king by day, pub songs for the hoi polloi by night, and love songs and sailor songs all the day long. Their music ranges from a capella 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. We can perform at your private or public event. Contact us for details.
