Only Arizona Anthem · Theme
The expedition's founding song — the premise the whole project stands on, set to music. U.S. Copyright registered.
"Arizona doesn't have a coastline. I'm giving it one."
Catamaran Dan and the Getaway Band is the sound of the Blue Rim Expedition Chronicles — original music written and produced from the deck of a 17-foot Hobie Getaway catamaran named Shamrocket, on a multi-year sailing circumnavigation of the Americas.
Every song starts the same way: a place, a person, or a moment on the route that needed to be kept. From a landlocked ranch in the White Mountains of Arizona to raft-ups hundreds of boats deep in the Eastern Caribbean, the songs carry the expedition forward — one stop, one story, one track at a time.
Catamaran Dan and the Getaway Band takes the show on the road — or rather, on the water. Original songs built around sailing, adventure, island life, and having a hell of a good time, played live wherever the boat happens to be.
Sometimes that's a set at the restaurant. Sometimes it's the dock. Sometimes it's anchored offshore with a whole flotilla gathered around for a sunset concert. Every show gets streamed live, so anyone, anywhere, can join the party.
