About this Event
SHE SHANTIES
6pm to 10pm, Saturday 10th October in the Old Net Loft
201 Kings Rd Arches, BN1 1NB
Come join us for some shanty singing in the historic Old Net Loft above Brighton's Fishing Museum.
Led by local singers Jo N and Jo Goddard. Jo and Jo sing at a number of local folk events, including Homeward Bound shanty sessions at the Jolly Brewer and Farm Tavern.
Jo G organises shanty and folk sessions at Rottingdean Windmill. Jo N is newer to singing and is keen to encourage others who might feel less confident.
We are holding this workshop to encourage women and people with a connection to that identity (trans and nonbinary folks very welcome) to sing up, sing along, and enjoy a shanty session. We want to help build up the confidence of more women singers and singers of other marginalised genders to take part in the various shanty sessions around Sussex.
