Our Take

Hailing from the picturesque village of Port Isaac, England, the Fisherman's Friends are a shanty-singing group like no other. Their latest album, simply titled "Port Isaac's Fisherman's Friends," is a delightful romp through traditional sea shanties and folk tunes that will have you tapping your toes and longing for the salty sea air.

From the hauntingly beautiful harmonies on tracks like "Drunken Sailor" to the foot-stomping energy of "South Australia," the Fisherman's Friends showcase their vocal prowess and undeniable charm throughout the album. Each member brings something unique to the table, from lead singer Jeremy Brown's powerful baritone to Jon Cleave's infectious enthusiasm.

One standout track is the bittersweet "John Kanaka," which tells the tale of a sailor longing for home. The group's tight harmonies and heartfelt delivery elevate this sea shanty to new heights, leaving listeners longing for a simpler time when life revolved around the sea.

While some may dismiss the Fisherman's Friends as a novelty act, this album proves that they are anything but. Their passion for these traditional tunes shines through in every note, making "Port Isaac's Fisherman's Friends" a must-listen for fans of folk music and sea shanties alike. So grab your pipe, pour yourself a pint of ale, and let the Fisherman's Friends transport you to the rugged shores of Cornwall. Cheers, me hearties!
