Thee Corsairs

They are like some drunk pirates that play music.

About Me


Ho, ho, ho and a bottle of rum! Let's propose a toast to Thee Corsairs, a finely dressed, finely tuned band of rock and roll pirates. Thee Corsairs combine the simplicity and energy of downright dirty garage rock and stylin' rockabilly, greaser havoc. These seasoned musicians found each other while working at Lou's Records in the summer of 2001 and have since mastered the art of creating engaging and playful music . Each of their songs is a salty sea tale, reminiscent of 60's garage rock infused with an element of imminent mystery and danger. However, the band also plows out songs to get dolled up to and go out and cut up a rug. With influences including The Reverend Horton Heat, and Rocket From the Crypt, there is no doubt that Thee Corsairs is "thee" best new addition to the rock scene in San Diego. Not to mention, they make it pretty hip to don an eye patch or stuffed parrot on your shoulder . "If Ye come seeking adventure and salty old pirates" feast ye eyes and ears on Thee Corsairs. But be warned, for Thee Corsairs have come to loot, pillage, and rock out!
