Songs and Stories of the King Mackerel & the Blues Are Running
by Jim Wann, Bland Simpson, J.L. Mills, Don Dixon
Synopsis
Tall tales and rollicking songs in the Diamond Studs and Pump Boys and Dinettes tradition transport audiences to the Outer Banks for a pleasant spate of fun and fishing.
Staging a benefit concert to save the Corncake Inlet Inn, the lively cast of fishermen musicians sing up a storm, tell fish stories and ghost stories, and relate accounts of first loves and ones that got away.
Press Reviews

— Wall Street Journal
"A pure salt watered delight...For a near vacation experience, it would be hard to beat."
— N.Y. Post
