Grey Funnel Line - Sailor song - The Parkington Sisters 

I remember them singing this while opening for Dropkick Murhpy's circa 2011 in Lowell. I recall making eye contact with the sister that was sitting. It was honestly a magical performance.

Hauntingly beautiful, I return to this on a regular basis and am amazed every time I listen to it.

The Grey Funnel Line - the nickname for the Royal Navy

I lived next door to Dani and Cheryl shortly before the Wizards were formed, Chris. Hadn't heard a thing about them until Doug Lyon told me he was going to their contest tonight! Thanks for posting!

I saw these ladies in NYC few days ago with Dropkick Murphys. These ladies are awesome!

I love this damn song... stuck in my head for days...

seashanty/appalachian ballad as Ive never heard, Already in Europe, huge amount of fans...........................

Lovely stuff

@ebelingindahouse Yes. I got to meet them after the Dropkicks show at the T-shirt table. They were really cool. The one who plays the accordion with the short red hair and glasses was the one who handed me my Dropkicks shirt when I picked it out.

cannot wait to see you ladies in SF...knew your parents a long time ago

the first song is called Grey Funnel Line... Though I think everybody guessed that, written by Cyril Tawney.

Amazing

Do you have any more videos of the Parkington Sisters? Love their cover of this great song! Such beautiful harmonies! Do they have a CD?

Missed you all at The Ark. Hopefully you'll be back.

i used to go see the dropkicks back in like... well, the late nineties... now, i'm way into the parkington sisters. way.

The Parkington Sisters are just delicious!

Be there, at the Takoma Park Be there on January 9th,2011 at The gorgeous new Takoma Park Maryland City Auditorium for their performance! 7:30 start. you saw the video now come meet the babes. their Facebook page has all the info. Here is a terrible but funny analogy: Hearing them is like opening five oysters and finding a pearl in every one!

whose the one in the middle with the guitar?

That would be Lidia, the sister who stopped touring to finish college.

you gals make me want to have several more kids (i have two daughters so far, both musical, so far...) just in case they might do anything like you have.
