Captain Quint has always seemed to steer their boat into more uncharted waters, straying away from the stereotypical mixtures of margaritas, palm trees and hammocks and offering up something a little more unique. Something that trop-rock fans across the country have called - "refreshing". Something Captain Quint have dubbed... "Real Tropical Rock and Roll" - They have arrived at that destination with "Unsinkable Still.". This is the band’s introspective instructional audio lesson on life. They’ve just about covered every issue - self worth, sarcasm, sabotage, substance abuse, sinking ships, staying power, seduction, slippery slopes, and sunny days and they’ve managed yet again to conjure up an eclectic mix of musical styles in a way that has become undeniably, unmistakably, Captain Quint.

"The Swinging Sailor of Perryman" is Captain Quint's sophomore release. It picks up where Quint's 'trop rock' debut, "Pineapple Jam", left off, but this time around the Captain has added lots of world music influences, including sounds from New Orleans, Jamaica, Trinidad, Africa, and Cuba. Quint also enlisted the aid of some fine engineers, including Secret Sound's John Grant (basic tracking, same as on "Pineapple Jam"), Shannon Follin from nationally-renowned Omega Studios in DC (mixing), and Nashville stalwart Jim DeMain (mastering). You may recognize DeMain as the man behind the board for Billy Joel, Nancy Griffith, Los Straitjackets, John Hiatt, and Jimmy Buffett's "License to Chill".

"Pineapple Jam" is Quint's debut CD and the one that put them on the map in the trop-rock community. It's 'trop rock', but stylistically a bit different from the norm - an infectiously palatable roux of rock, reggae, calypso, and Latin styles. Just real tropical rock and roll. Spreading the 'Jam' has been good enough to help Quint sell a few thousand copies, fantastic for an independent release!
