If there's one thing we can all agree on in this country, it's that Xmas needs more sea shanties!
Your work Xmas-party is going to be lame or cancelled so put a 2-dollar shop Santa's hat on 2025 and have a sing with Aotearoa's Most Seaworthy Shanty crew.
Prepare to be hit by a wave of joy and merriment as the Full Wellington Sea Shanty Society Experience transform the Abandoned Taproom into a shanty wonderland.
We got shanty booklets for all ye faithful and merch for Xmas presents.
WELLINGTON SEA SHANTY SOCIETY
Aotearoa New Zealand's Most 'Sea Worthy' Shanty Group™ have been belting out traditional and original sea songs from Aotearoa, France, Spain, the UK and more, since time immemorial (2012).
The W.S.S.S have toured Aotearoa and France multiple times and are known for their rowdy and participatory live shows. They've performed at Paimpol (one of the world's largest shanty festivals), Splore, Albany Folk Festival (Aus), Quebec Sea Shanty Festival (Canada) and a shipload of other festivals in NZ, France & Canada. Their new EP 'Sea Shanties of the 70s, 80s, & Today!' has just recently surfaced to complement their 'Now That's What I Call Sea Shanties' series. Another must-listen is 'Ahoy!' - a French/English album made with Nantes amis Croche Dedans.
