Single Review: The Little Things

I first came across Captain Festus McBoyle when he appeared on a television show performing a track Cheeky Little Monkey. Having enjoyed that track immensely, I had a little hunt and came across many other tracks from this hugely talented man. Since then he has released two pirate themed albums and this is his newest song, titled The Little Things.

The Little Things is a feel-good ditty that really is a magical song. Musically it has his traditional pirate sound and lyrically it’s one of those songs that will stick in your mind. It has a message that is needed now more than ever. The Little Things reminds us how we need to look back and take stock of the things that count and matter and more often than not they are the little things.

Captain Festus McBoyle is the full package in the sense that he dresses as a pirate and travels the country entertaining children and adults wherever he goes. He is what you would describe as an old school artist with his songs being stories with plenty of humour that will keep you giggling and smiling. I would encourage you to hunt down his previous albums and get along to one of his shows you’re never too old to be enthralled by a master entertainer.
