Throw up the horns! Time for some UK pirate metal with Dave Everitt of Red Rum.

We dig into the band's beginnings and how they settled on being pirates instead of Vikings. Plus Dave's early childhood in South Africa and his early singing experiences in classical music.

Under The Crossbones is a podcast all about pirate culture. Your host Phil Johnson (comedian, musician, and pirate geek) interviews the most interesting people in the pirate subculture: Actors, Authors, Historians, Musicians, Artists, Festival Founders, Clothing and Prop Designers, Treasure Hunters, Archaeologists, and more.
