“Now, seamen who spent their time in cargo-carrying sailing ships never heard a _decent_ Shanty; the words which sailor John put to them when unrestrained were the veriest filth.”
—WB Whall, Ships, Sea Songs and Shanties
In case you missed it, Cap’n Ed, #JennytheCabinBoy and Rear Admiral Ben sung up a storm with some shanty texts on ABC Radio Melbourne with @sammyjcomedian yesterday!

What’s the collective noun for a group of Lachlans? A strings section! Come hear these boys shred their stuff at The Mission to Seafarers-Victoria for our Live at the Norla Dome #album launch on March 6th.
A few scallywags aboard the good ship Enterprize, looking like they about to drop the hottest album of 2021.
Coincidentally, Live at the Norla Dome is out on March 6th!
We here at #ShantilyClad will be paying homage to this cinematic great in our own yo-ho-heave-ho kind of way. Come check us out at Mission to Seafarers on Mar 6th to see how!
