Andy, Paul, and Stephen, the founders of the Rogue Shanty Buoys, have
spent the past eight years conducting an extensive research project which
has explored and celebrated the rich musical heritage of the East Anglian
fishing industry.
Throughout this time, they have performed nationwide, delivering heritage
talks, performances, and workshops, while also nurturing Lowestoftʼs very
own fishing choir̶a passionate and dedicated ensemble in its own right.
For the first time, the trio will perform together to deliver an intimate yet
informal concert in their hometown, presenting a unique fusion of sea
shanties and tales deeply rooted in the regionʼs maritime history.
This performance will feature some of their favourite songs - traditional shanties as well as obscure maritime songs, alongside the captivating stories behind them, in a theatre show which promises plenty of humour and unfussy arrangements of seafaring ballads and nautical songs.
