THE FUN:

Songs and shanties by The Crimson Pirates

The Crimson Pirates hail from every corner of the country and come together every summer in Colorado for the Colorado Renaissance Festival to make merry with their unique spin on Celtic, folk and maritime music! Featuring tight-knit harmonies and a wide array of folk instruments, their repertoire spans a boatload of traditional tunes, as well as selections from Stan Rogers, The Andrews Sisters, Harry Belafonte, and even the Muppets! This quartet of crimson-clad singer-instrumentalists invites you to an evening of songs and shanties that will have you dancing in Sculpture Park, singing along, and feeling more than just a bit piratey!
