Sea Shanty Singalong 2023

Ahoy, mateys!

Calling all sailors, sirens and landlubbers too - it's time for a Sea Shanty Singalong with the Good Time Girls - A Benefit for Bellingham SeaFeast!

Join us at Boundary Bay Brewery on Saturday, March 11 from 5-8pm. $10 donation at the door.

Keep the party going after the St. Patrick's Day parade and get in touch with your inner (Irish?) Pirate.

We'll be singing shanties of course, and throw in some other nautical nonsense for a rollicking good time.

If you want to peek at the shanties we’ll be singing, here’s our list. And see below for the lyrics/versions we’ll be using!

  • Drop of Nelson’s Blood (aka Roll the Old Chariot)

  • Bully in the Alley

  • When Johnny Comes Down to Hilo

  • Rollin’ down to Old Maui

  • Clamzo (aka Reuben Ranzo as interpreted by Arlo Guthrie)

  • Drunken Sailor (of course)

  • Good Morning Ladies All

  • Bound for South Australia

  • Runnin’ Down to Cuba

  • Blow the Man Down (A Working Girl’s Perspective as sung by Emily Baron)

  • The Wellerman Song (As made famous by Tik Tok)

We will have songbooks to share but as a back-up these can also be pulled up on ye scurvy devices!
