Come join us for a musical evening too!!
We are so please to have the following line up of performers:

The Rum Soaked CrooksThe Rum Soaked Crooks  ~ Tom Goux, Jacek Sulanowski and Dan Lanier, have been cruising the New England shoreline, and beyond, for the last three decades and have inflicted much musical and poetic damage with a pungent mix of sailors’ chanteys, ballads and ditties. The Crooks have shared their songs and stories, both historical and contemporary, at festivals and maritime events across the country and in Europe, and have recorded on the Smithsonian-Folkways and Whaling City Sound labels. Their repertoire spans four centuries of Yankee seafaring and contains an extensive collection of Cape and Islands sea songs and poetry. goux@capecod.net
