As an American, I'm so grateful to have been able to see The Longest Johns in concert twice! I flew up to see them in Chicago for my 21st birthday and just saw them again in Atlanta last week. My absolute favorite band
Honestly I really love the 'new' folk songs, they're really adorable. It's interesting to hear songs about our daily lives/experiences, much like sea shanties would have been for sailors in ages past. I think 'A Mighty Wave' might be my favorite.
Very nicely summarised :) 100% agree. And 'A Mighty Wave' is definitely one of my favourites too.
Love the Mary Ellen Carter. Very inspirational.
Absolutely. You may find this background to the original song interesting:
"In 1983 the coastal cargo vessel Marine Electric capsized off the coast of Virginia. Robert Cusick, a fifty nine year old chief mate aboard the ship was trapped under the deckhouse when the vessel sank, and was forced to spend the night alone neck-deep in water.
With waves washing over him and hypothermia setting in, Cusick claims he remembered the concluding stanzas of The Mary Ellen Carter and was able to keep himself awake, and consequently alive, by shouting the lyrics between holding his breath against the waves. This story is told by Cusick himself in the Stan Rogers documentary One Warm Line."
Thank you. Love historical facts.

if ur here from tradelands or sea of thieves
Hey don’t know if this will work. But i’m trying to find a specific shanty that i heard once and any help would be appreciated. What i remember about it is that it’s a song about a guy ordering rounds of pretty much every kind of drink. The one lyric i really remember is, Get me a cider i’ll give that a try. Again any help is appreciated.
The Jolly Rogers - One For The Road. Enjoy :)

You my good man are a true king.
Are any of the songs Royal free
Capt'n o7
hate cars
it feels like these videos are slowly losing their feeling and value
I don't think so they all are very good in my opinion.
I always find something new and great with every single video.
For some people, it was just a fad. For me it grew into a true passion.
I know "Hard times" dates back to 1850, exploding in popularity during the first american civil war. But some of these folk songa are over 300 years old. There is a thing with them that made them be sung to this day.
this videos are not losing value or feeling we get 1 video in a Month enjoy it
Folk music and it’s historical value
gee sorry you feel that way. I'd love to have known this music 20 30 years ago. I'm so happy I've discovered it.
