We had our debut on Scoundrel’s Inn – Pirate Music for the Pirate Life on November 8th, with a very warm welcome from Captain Jack Gonzo, its proprietor. We’ll keep posting new episodes here when we happen to notice we were played… but go and check out ALL the episodes, because this highly participatory radio show is EXCELLENT. Also, if you have Amazon Prime, you can subscribe to the channel on Twitch for FREE, and the folks at Amazon will have to give up some (tiny fraction of) doubloons to the good Captain!
The Ballad of the Dandy Highwaymen around 0:36
The Ringing of Revolution …right after that
French Court Ladies …right after that

October 7th, 2020: Lockdown Listening feature by Jake Bissaro in Motif RI magazine
Read the whole review here.
“It’s an amusing release that bills itself as rococo punk”
“The Dandy Highwaymen do … have a real flair for storytelling”
“Fitting with the historical period, a lot of these feature a revolutionary tilt, like the Swiftian “A Modest Proposal,” about the age-old fantasy of eating the rich.”
September 24th, 2020: Review of Land Shanties by Victor Infante in Worcester Magazine
Read the whole review here.
“[The Dandy Highwaymen] bring a lot of layers to their creation, taking on the theatrical roles of 18th-century highwaymen, complete with outfits, and performing adaptions of traditional songs, more recent pop and folk music, and a few originals, weaving them into what is, almost against all odds, a strikingly coherent narrative. The whole album might be madness, but there is certainly method in it. Indeed, it’s the marriage of the two — embracing insanity while shaping eclectic material to fit their needs — that makes this album both successful and fun.” -Victor Infante

“They put the rock in Rococo and they want to serenade the dark recesses of your heart. They are the Dandy Highwaymen. Looking for the perfect soundtrack in your Airship, Time Machine and horseless carriage travels, then Land Shanties is for you!”
August 2nd, 2020: Mick Mercer Radio episode 186
“The Dandy Highwaymen are quite odd. I think we should celebrate their weirdness.” -Mick Mercer
