How I Became a Pirate (Will Be Back Soon!)

THE MUSTACHE GAME

About Me

"Have you ever gone to a show and the band starts you out with something with a solid beat to get your toes tapping, gradually build up and bring all the band members into the song kind of, break the ice between you and the band? Yeah, well that is so not How I Became A Pirate. These guys totally say hello with an in-your-face-here-is-what-we-play and cue crazy dancing! . . . " (www.audioxposure.com)Drawing influences from nearly every genre of music How I Became a Pirate has been ripping up stages all over the mid atlantic. With poingent lyrics, poppy hooks, and dissonence up the wazoo the band walks the line between a party and a fist fight never leaning to far to each side. They have shared the stage with The Esoteric, Bigwig, The Blackout Pact and Valencia.
