Travis of Mystery Tramp's "The Ocean is a Woman" CD is genuine boat music inspired by the people, places and adventures of the shakedown cruise from San Francisco to Mexico and Baja cruising aboard the self-built 44' steel cutter, Mystery Tramp.
Travis will have you sipping cervezas and humming along as he takes you south of the border with his fresh blend of cruiser country rock served with a dose of sea salt and a squeeze of lime in the storytelling spirit of Jimmy Buffet, Bob Dylan, the Grateful Dead, Willie Nelson, and Jerry Jeff Walker.  He will also soothe you soul like the ocean and make you laugh, then other times inspire you to chase your dream.  Unique amongst nautical oriented music CDs "The Ocean is a Woman" CD includes "A Visual Voyage by Emily", a collection of images in a digital photographic slideshow format vividly depicting the story of what a cruisers life is like.  Be sure to visit their website , a journey full of adventures in music, photography, cruising (sailing), and life.  Listen to a cut from this great CD:  Chasing a Dream    The Ocean

Eileen Quinn - Music for Sailors and normal people.........Early on in her sailing adventures, Eileen discovered that there wasn't a lot of music describing the life she was experiencing. The traditional sea shanties don't do it. She began writing songs about the really important, but neglected aspects of cruising: how anchoring leads to marital breakdown; why weather forecasters shouldn't be trusted; what it is about comfortable harbors that seems to scuttle any plans to leave.  ..we're slow even by corrected time although we're often near the front of the buffet line, takes us a while to sail very far but we strike like lightning at an open bar, gotta, gotta, gotta regatta...She's got two great albums and yes, she is still sailing and living the cruising life.
