Captain Bogg and Salty is a rock (music) band from Portland, Oregon, and a representative member of the subgenre of pirate rock. The band is well-known for their live shows, performed in full pirate regalia, and incorporating a bit of musical theater in between songs (Some of the band members also have careers as actors ). The band members each portray crew members of the pirate ship Pollywogg, ranging from the ship's captain, Angus Bogg, to the lowly deck-hand Salty.

The band has enjoyed success in the Pacific Northwest as both children's entertainers, and as a band enjoyed by adults--having performed numerous sold-out appearances in both children's venues (such as libraries) and adult venues (such as nightclubs). Unusually; they perform the same material in both types of venue; they have been quite adept at crossing the generation gap.
