Change Of Heart

I once placed sea shanties on a par with morris dancing. Lowwwwwwwwwww.

Changed my mind after meeting this lot who were part of the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival.

The Tavy Tars from Bere Ferrers in Devon, bizarrely singing in the middle of the trendy Seasalt clothes shop on the main street.

Great to chat with them about the strong naval tradition behind many of the songs...
