Place this 12-inch vinyl on your turntable and let the needle carry you across the ocean with traditional sea shanties blended with modern folk music. The companion USB card adds extended tracks and birdsong for a fuller listening experience. This release from Topic Records is a British music project rooted in seaman's songs.
When musician Simon Emmerson and his crew stumbled across a cache of seaman's songs curated by Topic Records it was the start of an epic voyage. These traditional work songs and sea shanties were fused with modern day folk music. The Walking With Ghosts band, voiced by Jackie Oates and Ben Murray accompany haunting voices from the past on our journey across the ocean. Sea birds fly alongside our ship, calling to each other across the melodies.
