155 Shanna Lovette of Tea and Strumpets

Under the Crossbones The Pirate Podcast

Shanna Lovette is the leader and songwriter of Tea and Strumpets. They're a relatively new group, but rising fast on the Pirate and Ren Faire scenes.

Somewhere between vocal group and musical theater, they've got a load of great original bawdy songs and choreography. We dig into why Shanna got the group together and how demand for their show has picked up. Heads up... This episode, by nature, has a little bawdy talk in it. If you've got kids with you, maybe listen later. Or be prepared to discuss. :)

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.
