Oil painting of The Ship Burners: a kraken-masked bassist, a guitarist, and a drummer playing on the flooded deck of a burning, sinking ship

All Rockers on Deck

The Ship Burners — because loose riffs sink ships. Boston.

Bassist/vocalist with a garage and a desire for mischief seeks a drummer and guitarist who aren't afraid to bend sacred rock/blues standards until they squeak.

Seeking reasonably well-adjusted beings: you have a job, you return texts, you show up when you say you will. I doubt anyone fully normal has read this far, so mild eccentricity is assumed. Full derangement negotiable, but only for the potty trained, opioid free, and truly gifted. I'll be playing masked and you can too because THEATER!

The Vision

The Deal

Covers first, originals later. Practice once a week starting September, garage or practice space provided. The ambition after sound is squared up: one weekend a month on tour.

The band runs on pirate ship rules. Once you're aboard, equal share of everything — songs, loot, gigs, who we recruit next. But mates are sworn to secrecy.
