There has been renaissance in Shanty singing and maritime music generally in recent years, Hastings in East Sussex has been at the forefront of this renaissance. Partly responsible for the re-emergence of this maritime tradition in Hastings – a small fishing town with one of the few beach-launched fleets remaining in the UK - have been the individuals who together make up the RX Shantymen - Mick Bovee, Tom Kelly, Scott Reid & Jon Tigwell.

They got together after having been heard singing individually, it was suggested that they would make a great sound together (public opinion was right!!). Their mission is quite simply to spread the gospel of Shanty singing and maritime music, entertain their audience and have a good time doing it.

Storyteller and songwriter; grew up in Wokingham, Berkshire and now based in Brighton, East Sussex. I tell stories from myth and from history about people living their lives here on the Earth; but also sing and play folky-country indie-rock about history (again), politics, and modern life. Is the music I've mostly posted here - enjoy! Can also be heard playing in the Bandana Collective (left-wing folk-garage-punk combo). Check them out, and me on my own, at the links below.

I am an English singer, living since 1996 in Woods Hole, Massachusetts, USA. I was born in Hampshire, England on the edge of The New Forest, and then lived in North Oxfordshire for 25 years. There I was Squire and Foreman of The Adderbury Morris Men from the revival of the village dances in 1974, till I moved to the USA.
I have been singing all my life, but in recent years have been doing more since I have given up dancing.
I have recordings out on both Fallen Angle Music in Canada (see - http://www.ianrobb.com/)  and Forest Tracks Records in the UK - but that organisation has been wound up and no longer exists - I do still have some recordings but alas, very few.

I've been writing songs on and off for about 50 years now, both serious/not serious and irreverent.  I'm using Soundcloud mainly to post up demos of new songs although one or two are "the finished article"  - six solo CDs a so far and one ("Aspects of Lurve") in the making and a couple of collaborations with Steve Cartwright ("Legends of Leicester/Leicestershire"). No drugs involved in the writing of any of the lyrics.
