City Shanty Band at Union Chapel
Overview
The band is a crew of 11 landlocked sailors, singing songs of nautical nostalgia and city calamity. The Hackney based a-cappella group, inspired by the work songs of the age of sail howl out shanties old and new, borrowed and blue, with an aim to keep alive the tradition of communal singing and storytelling in the blogging generation. CSB is young, dumb and full of rum, and ready for a rumpus.
