Performed together as a duo at the Chicago Maritime Festival in 2004.

Anyone who loves sea music should know Don Sineti, former chanteyman at Mystic Seaport and confidant of Stan Hugill. He’s the big man with a big smile, huge heart, massive, booming voice, and a wicked 5-string banjo. Apart from his powerful and passionate singing, Don is also an accomplished self-taught marine mammal illustrator and a cetacean activist. You can learn a lot from listening to Don!

Like his band-mate, multi-instrumentalist Steve Roys, a carpenter by trade, has had a life-long interest in traditional music and dance. He sings, plays accordion, jaw harp, spoons, bodhran and a sizzling hot harmonica. Americana’s sound is fresh and delightfully entertaining.

Years later Don and Steve were joined by Bill Walach to form Americana.

Don Sineti crossed the bar on January 5, 2023 at age 79.
