Ahoy, Mates!
Bounding Main is a maritime-themed a cappella vocal group that sings richly harmonic versions of maritime songs. Their shows are filled with spirit, humor and harmony; their arrangements of traditional and contemporary nautical music bring the listener into the world of adventure and romance.
Each member of Bounding Main — Dean Calin, Christie Dalby, Gina Dalby, Jon Krivitzky, and Patrick Knapp — is a music and theater veteran, with diverse entertainment backgrounds. Their performances and CDs have been well received with brisk US and international sales. They have entertained at music festivals, nautical festivals, major tall ships events, maritime museums, renaissance faires, folk music venues and corporate events on both sides of the Atlantic.

Our Music
“Though my sails be torn and tattered, and the mast be turned about, let the night wind chill me to my very soul,
Though the spray might sting my eyes, and the stars no light provide, give me just another morning light to hold…”
“A Sailor’s Prayer,” Rod MacDonald, 1978. Recorded with permission for Bounding Main’s Maiden Voyage album.
