Captain Tractor is a folk rock band from Edmonton, Alberta, known for their high-energy blend of Celtic-influenced rock and prairie storytelling. Formed in the early 1990s, the group gained a following with their unique sound that combines traditional instruments like fiddle and accordion with rock guitars and witty, often humorous lyrics. They’re perhaps best known for their raucous cover of "The Last Saskatchewan Pirate," which became an anthem across Western Canada.
Over the years, Captain Tractor has become a staple in the Canadian indie music scene, releasing multiple albums including North of the Yellowhead, Bought the Farm, and Hoserista. Their music often paints vivid pictures of life in Alberta and beyond, mixing local references with universal themes.
