Severn Whalers

It has been an absolute joy to record with the fantastic Severn Whalers, to produce their debut album - it's shanty-tastic!

Known for their close harmonies, great timing and having fun together the Severn Whalers’ shanty style is engaging and approachable, due in no small part to their earlier coaching from Jonathan Darley (“JD”) of foremost shanty group The Longest Johns. With songs ranging from the sublime God Moves to the ridiculous Chicken on a Raft, all are sung with an enthusiasm and energy that keeps these close friends together and has audiences calling for more.

They’ve had an action packed summer, from performing in the Falmouth International Sea Shanty Festival, to touring to the Festival du Chant de Marin in Paimpol, France!

The Severn Whalers is made up of the wonderfully talented Chris Howland-Harris, Juliet Blackburn, Neil Lock & Richard Corney.
