"If you’re looking for pirate music, no need to look further than The Pirates Charles. They call themselves pirate rock specialists and I couldn’t agree more. I’ve seen these minstrels live and in person, they really rocked the ship with their pirate presence... If this doesn’t make you kick up yer heels and raise your whiskey high, then you haven’t an ounce of pirate soul."
-Housewife in Hollywood, housewifeinhollywood.com
"The Pirates Charles come across as jovial and shameless in their performance... The Pirates Charles' rough presentation is so wonderfully perfect that it's hard to believe it isn't secretly (and masterfully) contrived...That such a primitive facade can conceal music so entirely engrossing is a major feat."
-Bilgemunkey Radio
"If you've not been lucky enough to catch The Pirates Charles in concert then your pyrate life is not yet complete. [The Pirates Charles] take chanty music to the next level of rock. If pyrate music groups had rock stars, The Pirates Charles would be they.
-The Pyrates Way Magazine, Spring 2008
"...Equal amounts of talent and imagination, The Pirates Charles is just as impressive to watch as they are to hear".
-Bobby Musgrove "Un Sung" KILLRADIO.ORG
"Somewhere out there Blackbeard and Beefheart are drinkin scotch goin' 'These guys are where it's at.'"
-Taylor Johnson
