  James A. Kuehl is the Captain on this Sea voyage. 

 A majority  of the songs chosen for this project were those James found and researched.  Many he taught to the Renaissance Consort, a group of Scottish dancers, back in his high school days in Madison, Wisconsin.  Many of those dancers would join James in sea shanties and Celtic songs between dances.  Our beloved Bill Masino was one of them. 

It is an honor and pleasure to all of us to bring to life some of those wonderful songs along with one of the songs James wrote himself, Empress of Ireland, on this 3 Pints Gone CD There Is A Ship.

James is a natural when it comes to leading sea shanties.
You'll be singin' along before you know it.
