Join us for this FREE concert on the wharf of Maritime Gloucester featuring band members:

Allan Estes, Sal Baglio, Matt Levinworth, Dave Mattakcs, Wolf Ginandes, Tom West, Alexandra Grace, and Petra Munter

For nearly four centuries, the history of Gloucester, Massachusetts has been the story of America’s greatest fishing port. With this collection of songs, the Souls of the Sea band commemorates the lives and legacy of the 10,000 Gloucester fishermen who died at sea while fishing. The Souls of the Sea captures the heart and soul of America’s most dangerous occupation: commercial fishing.

The story of fishing is a true microcosm of American ideals, struggles, and values. Focusing on the fishermen and families of America’s oldest fishing port, the songs capture the universal concepts of hope, perserverance, hard work, and devotion to family. One of the songs, “Where’d They Go”, is the official song of the City of Gloucester (MA).
