The band is composed of MC/Producer Yonnas Abraham, Chez Strong on keyboards and guitar, Sam "Dj 5am" Trumper, and Hogans Daniel on drums.

The Pirate Signal sound has been characterized as a mixture of rap, hip hop and alternative rock.

In 2006, Pirate Signal received an opening slot on the west coast leg of Kool Keith's 2006 Return of Dr. Octagon Tour.

As an album and as a band, this project contains so much more of what we've learned about ourselves in these past three years, that I wouldn't have it any other way, our time is fast approaching, and when it comes, this is what it sounds like.

From this we can make the live show that much more incredible, and continue to streamline our sound and accomplish our goal of being the best band in the world.

Pirate Signal has been featured in several promos for the television network HDNet, using the song “I Can’t Wait” 2007, and (You Will) Get Dirty in 2008 and 2009.
