   About Captain Black


Captain Black are a unique sounding band currently dwelling in Camden Town, London. Their folky melodies, skiffle rhythms and gospel tinged choruses come together in a set of individual and modern sounding pop songs that you will not hear the likes of in any other band around.

They are currently working on their debut album due for release in 2008, which is sure to carry on splitting opinions and sparking debate but is guaranteed to gain new fans and definitely won’t go unnoticed.

Listen to any of their catchy singles or come to one of their highly talked about, energetic live shows to see what all the fuss is about.

Fan or Foe, you cannot avoid the sound of Captain Black. x

If a man withdraws his mind from the love of beauty, and applies it as sincerely to the love of the virtuous; if, in serving his parents, he can exert his utmost strength; if, in serving his prince, he can devote his life; if in his intercourse with his friends, his words are sincere - although men say that he has not learned, I will certainly say that he has.
