Hailing from a folk tradition with an unbroken line of heritage, The Albany Shantymen sing loud and hard like the sailors of old. A rowdy bunch of fourteen Albany men, we come together to pay homage to the merchant sailors with rhythmic choruses and rousing solos to stir the blood and soothe the soul. Our repertoire of songs comes from all parts of the globe, wherever man has harnessed the wind with rope and old canvas.
In 2019 the group inaugurated The Albany International Folk 'n' Shanty Festival - the only gathering dedicated to shanty singing in the Southern Hemisphere.
