"I've been a Pirate Jenny fan for five years since I saw them perform in Portland when I was in college. Never-Sea land is their first full-length CD, and it definitely showcases their abilities and style very well. From Paul Ianotti's amazing xylophone solos to Kevin Hendrickson's tightly woven lyrical tales of Scabby the Seaman and Captain Slaymore, this album is good fun for the whole family. These aren't your typical sea-chanties!"

"With this album, Pirate Jenny has created a shimmering, tightly woven cloth of haunting, angst-filled ballads of longing and loneliness such as "Never-Sea Land", intertwined with giddy, darkly humorous tracks such as "Captain Slaymore" - a rich study of a man too long at sea.I'm a devoted fan of Pirate rock in all it's incarnations (Pirate Jenny, Hucklescary Finn, and now, Captain Bogg & Salty), but I find that this album transcends the pure delightfulness of the band's other albums and appeals to me on a deeper level. Although I love them all, this is the one that brings out the dreamer in me.So, for all you land-locked lads & lasses stuck in this hum-drum modern world, "Slip off your boots and put on a paper crown, you'll find that you're not so boring.""
