Captain Blue's Grass Band is steeped in rich history. Hailing from good ole Sussex County, Delaware they strive to keep classic American culture alive through their lively picking, heartfelt vocals, and soaring harmonies. Armed with nothing but acoustic instruments and their voices, Captain Blue's Grass Band is turning heads across the peninsula with their own foot stompin' funky blend of Americana, Bluegrass, Folk and Rock n' Roll. Joey Todd (Vocals/Bass), Joshua Rose (Vocals/Harmonica/Guitar) and C.J. Cutsail (Vocals/Guitar) captivate audiences from stages of all sizes in every corner of the Delmarva Peninsula by singing tales of love and loss, mystery and adventure, gambling and betrayal, beauty and horror, and life and death. It may not be pretty, but it's real.
In 2014, Captain Blue's Grass Band played at some of the region's best festivals including the 35th Annual June Jam, the 8th Annual Oswald Festival of Influences, and the 4th Annual Good Beer Festival, just to name a few.
