A ramshackle bunch of shanty singers, guaranteed to be the life and soul of every party

The Out Of Tunas rose like a phoenix from the ashes of the pandemic. A gentlemen’s club with a difference, now recording their own original songs. Sometimes described as ‘the bad boys of shanty’ or ‘a drinking club with a shanty problem’, we will soon be coming to a festival near you and playing through speakers at full volume!

The group is also responsible for initiating the Out of Tunas and Friends Sea Shanty Festival held at The New Quay Inn, Teignmouth on the 31st January 2026 in aid of the RNLI
