Ian Bush (Captain)
Ian, is one of the original Wellington Wailers. A long-standing member of ‘The Sussex Yacht Club’, it was Ian’s idea the club would benefit from having a sea shanty crew. Whether the club benefited, other than increased bar takings, is a moot point. However, that idea late in 2012 germinated into the ‘best and strongest sea shanty crew in Sussex’ Well that’s what he says.
Ian has been around the folk world for many a year now. He has sung and played in folk clubs throughout Sussex and beyond. He has also started up and hosted folk clubs and music sessions in many a fine pub. Like several other Wailers, Ian has also been a keen Morris Dancer, and was also Squire of Chanctonbury Ring Morris Men.
