Peerless Pirates

Hobgoblin Stage, Sunday 2017

Peerless Pirates

Peerless Pirates hail from middle England—the pastures of Oxfordshire, Buckinghamshire and Berkshire serving as their stamping ground.

Their sound is a rollicking, roustabout mix of classic 80s energetic indie, sea shanties, rockabilly, surf-rock and spaghetti western soundtracks. “Rum-soaked fun” is a phrase often—and justifiably—bandied about. If you’ve forgotten the time when indie sounded fun, here’s your chance to get re-acquainted.

The band have just released their eponymously titled debut album featuring 14 tracks and will be hoping to continue their meteoric rise with many more gigs, festival appearances, EP releases and new material.
