Description: We are a group of singers based in Plymouth, Devon & East Cornwall who specialise in presenting Shanties
& Sea Songs from the great age of sail together with Contemporary Sea Songs both serious & humorous.

We sing both with instruments & unaccompanied & we positively encourage audience participation & love to see audiences having a good time.

Many festival-goers will have seen us busking, running pub sing-arounds & performance workshops as well as in concert at festivals both far & wide.

We have performed at Maritime Festivals, Music & Arts Festivals both at home & on the mainland of Europe and in pubs, clubs and theatres in Cornwall, Devon & many other regions of the United Kingdom.

Ths will be our last year of performing after 17 years and we will be performing our The Voyage Home show. All sailor based fancy dress welcome for the show !
