Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen

Mr. Hurley & Die Pulveraffen are a pirate-folk band formed in Osnabrück in 2009 around frontman Mr. Hurley (Simon Erichsen) and his siblings. Their self-styled "grog'n'roll" blends folk, metal and rowdy seafaring tales into high-energy live shows. The band has become a fixture of the German folk-metal scene and regularly plays festivals such as Wacken Open Air.
