Originally a duo called "Them Eastport Oyster Boys" and officially proclaimed Musical Goodwill Ambassadors of Annapolis, they have performed all over the world. ==Before The Band== [https://oysterboys.com/ The Eastport Oyster Boys], formerly Them Eastport Oyster Boys, was formed following the breakup of a local Eastport band Crab Alley. After 10 years of Crab Alley, co-founder Jeff Holland and bass player Kevin Brooks formed Them Eastport Oyster Boys. ==Founding Members== '''Jeff Holland''' discovered Annapolis after sailing the upper East Coast with his father in 1978. After passing a fleet of the Navy's Luder yawls on the Severn River, they dropped anchor and found their new home. Brooks contributed to local newspapers in the 1980's as well as writing songs about the Chesapeake Bay. These songs lead to the creation of Crab Alley alongside Janie Meneeley.
