Overview
Folk lovers from Swansea who love playing live.
Formed as a one-off for a talent contest in late 2008, Captain Cat and the Sailors are a shanty loving folk band that just keep on going. Based in South Wales, they draw on a range of musical traditions including shanties, working songs, Welsh, Irish and American music to create immersive and engaging musical experiences with their audiences. If you like stories, singing along and sinking beers then they are the band for you.
As of 4 Feb 2025 the band’s website does not propagate, so the only way to reach them is through a Facebook Messenger message.
