Boy, those folks at Sixthman sure are on the ball. It’s only April, two short months after the 2008 Cayamo cruise, and yet they already have the dates booked for 2009.
The singer-songwriter cruise will feature many of the same artists from this year’s event: Lyle Lovett, John Hiatt (whom Paste editor-in-chief, Josh Jackson, interviewed on the boat), Patty Griffin, Shawn Colvin and Buddy Miller. There is also the promise of more great artists being introduced as the year goes on.
Cayamo, which focuses on folk, blues and Americana, will be sailing out of Miami on Norwegian Cruiselines on February 28 and returning March 7, 2009. It will feature the four sigh-inducing ports of Samana, St. Thomas, Tortola and Great Stirrup Cay.
If you’ve sailed with Cayamo before, or have already registered for a Sixthman username, then you will be getting an e-mail in the next few weeks with a registration date. If not, and you think sailing on a boat filled with musicians to exotic, tropical locations and seeing free concerts sounds like fun, then head on over to Sixthman.net for additional information.
