About



Shipmates and landlubbers… visit WX for an unforgettable evening of maritime merriment!


Two powerhouse shanty crews will be taking to the stage: the Kimbers Men, known for their rich harmonies and commanding presence, and the electrifying Jack Tars, a young folk band making waves with their roaring vocals, crisp fiddle lines, and foot-stomping energy.



Seasoned sailors and landlubbers looking for adventure –  prepare to be swept away on a musical voyage through the high seas. With the genre enjoying a triumphant resurgence, this is your chance to experience the heart and soul of seafaring song in its most rousing form.


Raise your voices, stomp your boots and let the shanties roll!
