Ahoy, Australia!
The Longest Johns Are Bringing Their Sea Shanties To Australia this May.
Prepare to be swept off your feet and into the roaring tides of adventure as the worldβs most beloved sea shanty crew, The Longest Johns, make their long awaited voyage to Australia!
This isnβt just any tour - this is a full-blown, barnacle-busting, all-hands-on-deck musical odyssey!
For over a decade, this Bristol based band of buccaneers have been bringing the βrock n roll of 1752β to rooms full of smiling, swashbuckling fans the world over.
Now, after twelve years of charting courses through treacherous waters, from the foggy shores of Europe to the bustling harbours of North America, The Longest Johns are ready to bring their raucous, rollicking sea shanties Down Under.
In May, the crew will dock in a city near you, ready to unleash their four part vocal harmonies with fiddles and drums in tow.
With five albums under their hefty belt buckles, including their latest, Voyage, released earlier this year, The Longest Johns are on a mission to turn every Aussie venue into a maritime tavern to be filled with roaring sing-alongs and the clinking of flagons.
The Longest Johns have not only graced the stages of international folk festivals but have also amassed a staggering 400 million streams, half a million YouTube subscribers, and over 200,000 hours of Twitch views. Theyβve partnered with some of the biggest names in gaming including Ubisoft, Sea of Thieves, Ship of Fools, Wanderworld and even laid down the soundtrack for No Man's Wife, a new film from the co-producers of the Fisherman's Friends films.
The band shot to global fame in 2021 when their rendition of the traditional shanty βWellermanβ became a viral sensation. A 150-year-old New Zealand folk song transformed into a global phenomenon, peaking at #2 on the US Spotify Viral Chart and #5 globally.
The song has since racked up over 67 million plays and continues to grow daily.
The Longest Johns are more than just a band. Theyβre a living, breathing piece of history. Their music, steeped in the lore of the high seas, is a voyage through time, inspired by the epic tales and legends that have echoed across centuries. Their performances are nothing short of legendary, from serenading royalty at the late Queenβs birthday party at the British Embassy in Paris to rejecting traditional gold records in favour of environmentally friendly wooden discs made from recycled shipβs timbers.
Australia, is the perfect setting for The Longest Johnsβ next chapter. Don your best swashbuckling attire, fill yourself with rum, and prepare for an evening of unbridled revelry. Expect to be swept away by iconic tunes like βDrunken Sailor,β βHammer and The Anvil,β βWellerman,β and even sea-shanty-infused classics like βProud Maryβ and βSantania.β
This is a call to adventure, a journey back to the days of tall ships and salty breezes; So hoist the anchor Australia and join The Longest Johns for a night of roaring choruses, foot-stomping anthems, and memories of those glorious days of yore.
This is one voyage you do NOT want to miss!
