Pirates on Cassette describes themselves as “your ultimate live mixtape experience,” and for good reason. Based in Fargo, North Dakota, this high-energy variety band skips the deep cuts in favor of a constantly rotating setlist designed to sound like a perfect party playlist on shuffle.

Frequent headliners at Dempsey’s Public House, they are known for their ability to jump seamlessly between genres—blending pop, rock, and alternative hits from various decades. With a focus on crowd interaction and non-stop momentum, Pirates on Cassette brings a fun, nostalgic vibe that turns any show into a sing-along party.
