Pirates on the horizon as Captain Tractor prespares to board the Living Skies Festival

“The Last Saskatchewan Pirate” is our province’s unofficially adopted anthem. You can thank a group of tongue in cheek Ontarians. The Arrogant Worms, for penning the piece. But by far and away the definitive cover, best known by prairie folk, comes courtesy of Alberta’s Captain Tractor.  

Far from a one-hit wonder, Captain Tractor has put out 10 studio albums and has ceaseless toured across the country as both headliners and with an ensemble of entertainers at summer festivals.  

They’ll take the stage in Humboldt as part of the Living Skies Music Festival. Bolt FM’s Sarah Miller talks to the band about their appearance here and their long and storied history.
