Pine Island Sounds

Through a partnership with Captiva Cruises, SCCF launched an island-inspired concert series in 2019. Join us as we sail into the sunset enjoying an on-the-water celebration of eclectic music, island community, and SCCF’s critical research and programs to protect local water quality.

2024-25 Lineup

Each Pine Island Sounds ticket includes a complimentary drink coupon — courtesy "First Drink's on Us" sponsors Janie Howland and Jack Thomas — and a buffet of light bites. All cruises set sail from McCarthy's Marina on Captiva. A huge thanks to Captiva Cruises and the Marcums for making these sunset cruises possible.

Nov. 17, 2024 | 4-6 p.m. | The Suitcase Junket

Matt Lorenz's vision, manifest in The Suitcase Junket, developed in the tension between the grand and the solitary. Grand in its imagery, sound, and staging. Solitary in its thrift and self-reliance. What instruments he requires, Lorenz builds from scratch and salvage. What parts five players would perform, he performs alone. The spectacle of his one-man set bears constant comparison to legends of showmanship, brilliance, madness, and invention. 

Dec. 15, 2024 | 4-6 p.m. | Caleb Caudle & The Sweet Critters

Rolling Stone Country describes Caleb Caudle & The Sweet Critters' distinct sound as "the musical equivalent of high-proof bourbon-rich in flavor, with a subtle, satisfying bite.” Inspired by musical heroes like Buddy Miller and Guy Clark, and mentors like Elizabeth Cook and John Paul White, Caudle mines both the brightest and murkiest corners of his imagination, finding the purest of points where tenderness and grit collide.

Jan. 12, 2025 | Blair Crimmins & The Hookers: SOLD OUT

A four-piece band known for its supercharged, hot ragtime jazz with a touch of rock and roll, the Atlanta, GA-based band, Blair Crimmins and the Hookers have dedicated their musical careers to revive and bring Ragtime and 1920s Dixieland jazz to new audiences. However, Crimmins and his backing band, the Hookers don’t focus on some sort of lifeless, era-inspired tribute; their sound, much like the sound they love and are so deeply inspired by is a living, vital thing recorded using modern studio techniques.

Feb. 2 | 4:30-6:30 p.m. | Songs From The Road Band

This powerhouse acoustic bluegrass group based in Asheville, NC captivates audiences with virtuosic picking, harmony singing, and Grammy award-winning songwriting. Songs From The Road Band has always been willing to take risks while staying true to its bluegrass roots. Their live show blends musical genres and appeals to all age groups of music lovers.
