About Us
Founded in 2023, Tugboat Tradd & The Deckhands was born after frontman Tradd traded life working on a tugboat for the stage. What started as local gigs in bars and restaurants across Beaufort, Charleston, and Hilton Head quickly grew into one of the Lowcountry's favorite beach-country bands.
Known for their high-energy shows, laid-back coastal vibe, and crowd-pleasing mix of country, rock, and beach music, the band has gone from playing intimate venues to headlining nights at The Pour House and performing after parties at The Windjammer. Whether it's a waterfront bar, festival, or packed music venue, Tugboat Tradd & The Deckhands brings the spirit of the coast to every performance.
