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.

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.

Bounding Main at the Dellshire Resort 2026

Bounding Main will be entertaining for a private, corporate event in the Wisconsin Dells, USA on Saturday, May 9th.  We look forward to making many new fans and friends at the center of a fun, tourist area in the heart of the American Midwest.

Because this is a private event, we are unable to share event details with our larger fan-base.  We DO look forward to seeing everyone at our many other, upcoming events this year!

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.
