We did an EP release tour for our new release 'Sea Shanties of the 70s, 80s & Today!' but we forgot to come to Te Awa Kairangi Ki Tai! Kaua e āwangawanga e hoa mā....he hui shanty kei te haere!
Best dressed prizes! Nautical games! Singalong shanties!
They say some things never leave us. They’re always there, just out of reach, between sleep and dreams. Between the foreshore and seabed. The plaintive moan of a bachelor seal. The treasure we never found. The life we never led.
But fear not sweet hearties – the Wellington Sea Shanty Society (WSSS) are back from exile with a swag bag of forgotten futures! Secrets given up by the sea in the form of ‘Sea Shanties of the 70’s, 80’s & Today!’ (their new EP).
Each song a mysterious oyster lovingly shucked by the likes of Vorn dont Le Père Était Marin, Lake Davineer, Nick De La Mer, Thomas Un Copa and long time shanty foes ‘The Salty Wailers’.
Come help the WSSS sing all your favourite shanties — as well as a few fresh pāua ballads!
Don't miss out, get your boarding passes now!
*A portion of sales will go towards our friends' daughter Neve who is going to Korea for a scout jamboree.
