Album Notes

General bio for Richard Adrianowicz:

Richard's interest in traditional music began in the early 70s when he moved to California. He was part of several groups in the San Francisco Bay Area, the best known of which was Out of the Rain. The band was active from 1983 to 1995 and recorded two studio cassettes, A Common Treasury and Song of the Wage Slave. Richard also produced With the Friends I Love Best, a compilation CD of live concert recordings from Out of the Rain performances.

In addition to being a vocalist, Richard also plays the guitar, tin whistle and fiddle. Richard now sings in a nautical duet with Peter Kasin. In 2005 they released their first album together, Boldly from the Westward and in 2006 they released a second album, Cast Off Each Line. A third album, With Shipmates All Round, will be released in 2008.

In addition to being a vocalist, Richard also plays the guitar, tin whistle and fiddle.


General bio for Peter Kasin:

Peter Kasin took a strong interest in sea music after hearing a recording of Ewan MacColl and A.L. lloyd, and after having first attended one of the monthly chantey sings at Hyde Street Pier in late 1989. In addition to his singing, he plays fiddle in the four-piece instrumental sea music band Nauticus, and with the San Francisco Scottish Fiddlers. He can be found most Sunday nights in the Irish session at the Starry Plough, hosted by fellow Nauticus bandmate Shay Black, in his hometown of Berkeley.
