About this episode
Sea shanties are some of the more popular traditional songs found in Celtic music. That's because they're fun to sing. They are also extremely popular at Renaissance festivals which is why I asked the Danny Faught of the Renaissance Festival Podcast to host a joint show for our podcasts. Rambling Sailors, Marooned, Chuckawalla Rhythm Kings, Captain John Stout, Angus McHugh, The Crimson Pirates, Bounding Main, DeCantus, The Bilge Pumps, 3 Pints Gone, Henry Martin, The Poxy Boggards, "Captain Black Jack" Murphy, Bocca Musica I hope you enjoyed this week's show.
