Been loving your music for years. I’m a young man from the American northeast who has made a living sailing the raging North Atlantic. My father was a navy man as was his brother, and his parents were Irish immigrants descended from Irish sailors who were descended from britons and Norsemen. The sea is in my blood. And even in these modern times shanty culture is strong. Among the commercial sailors. Your songs were always favorites on my vessels. Men still work the seas to these age old songs. And you bring those songs to life/ keep them alive.
