   About Tall Ships
The Present:
Tall Ships is a group of rough 'n' tumble scavengers from Bennington, Vermont. We all have very interesting lives that we appreciate very much. We have found, generally, that there are many things that bind us together; that is, the fact that we are undeniably human, undeniably good willed, and undeniably excited about sounds, the emotions they convey, and the lives they are taken from.

We have one studio album (self titled). It's available through human to human contact, but otherwise lays quietly resting alone. We have one more show scheduled, which will give us the recordings of several new songs previously unrecorded. So- expect an EP of sorts.

This summer, we may play a small number of shows, but as a result of the physical relocation of several Tall Ships members, it's likely that the key 5 members will not be seen together playing this music much longer. While it is unfortunate, and the nastalgia is already settling in, there's no need to worry. We'll all be making music, that's for sure, some of us still together, some of us in foreign places with new friends.

As always, we hope you are well and satisfied.

i was thinking . . . maybe we should try and get everybody together to re-record some of the tracks and also record the ones that never made it. we have a nice baby grand, an old fender princeton, a vintage rogers drum set, and we get really good vocals done here at mother west. t'would be much fun! any thoughts?

Dudes, Great show at sarah lawrence. I thoroughly enjoyed it. Trevor, i didn't know you were that voice from the recodrings...you can wail man! I look forward to hearing you guys again, maybe in a more intimate setting. Its always hard to spread sound in the great outdoors but you guys really did it. Peace.

Trevor, thanks so much for the CD. I'm home in Virginia now and enjoying it very much. Fingers crossed that B'ton can figure a good alternative to that student center! I missed the little bar spot so much. Hope I get to see y'all in concert soon.

A sad haiku for you:

The World Cafe lives
With a clear cold horizon,
Ships breathe in absence.
