Setting sail to the Plymouth Stable this July, 21-piece band ‘The Old Time Sailors’ invite guests to travel back in time to the 19th century and join them for an immersive experience of traditional seafaring music! #Advert
Taking to Plymouth Stable’s outdoor terrace, overlooking the bustling Barbican harbour, 21-piece band ‘Old Time Sailors’ will summon crowds from near and far as they put on a wildly interactive performance of upbeat old folk and traditional sea shanty songs. Made up of 20 musicians, The Old Time Sailors crew will be performing over 40 songs using traditional instruments, and all dressed in realistic sea shanty attire, transporting the crowd to being onboard their 19th century vessel.
“We couldn’t think of a better location than our harbourside terrace to have Old Time Sailors perform, there will be a fantastic atmosphere, and it’s something the whole family can get involved in” – Says Kate Nayler, General Manager of The Stable
Guests are encouraged to come down for pre-performance pizzas and pints, fuelling-up for a night of foot stomping, dancing and drunken sailor debauchery!
Led by Captain Nicholas Moffat, Old Time Sailors consists of 20 musicians, multiple voices and over 30 traditional instruments, playing a repertoire of over 40 songs. The band play fully unplugged to ensure a dynamic and interactive experience, and have recently made their debut at popular UK festivals, including El Dorado in Herefordshire and Download festival in Leicestershire.
Performances start from 7:30pm on all select dates – Wednesday 10th July and Tuesday 30th July from 7:30pm, entry is free and no bookings
