Our Take

The Sea Song Sessions, a collaborative effort by Jon Boden, Seth Lakeman, Ben Nicholls, Emily Portman, and Jack Rutter, is like a turbulent sea voyage through the dark and mysterious depths of British folk music. Each track on this album is a beautifully crafted gem, with haunting melodies and intricate instrumentation that will transport you to a world of ancient myths and legends. From the haunting vocals of Emily Portman on "Blackwaterside" to the lively fiddle work of Seth Lakeman on "Dorset Coast," every song on Sea Song Sessions is a testament to the talent and creativity of these five incredible musicians. But what truly sets this album apart is the innovative reimagining of traditional sea shanties and folk songs. The arrangements are fresh and modern, with unexpected twists and turns that keep you on the edge of your seat. It's clear that Boden, Lakeman, Nicholls, Portman, and Rutter have a deep love and respect for the rich tapestry of British folk music, and their passion shines through in every note. So whether you're an old salt who knows every sea shanty by heart or a landlubber looking to explore the wonders of folk music, Sea Song Sessions is a must-listen for anyone who appreciates great music and great storytelling. Let this album be your anchor in a sea of mediocrity, and let its powerful currents carry you away to a place where magic and music collide in perfect harmony. Grab your waterproof boots and set sail with this magnificent musical voyage!
