Overview
Overview
Barrel Seagals is an all-female shanty crew based in Bude, Cornwall.
Having only formed in April 2023, it was straight in at the deep end as their debut performance was broadcast on BBC as part of the King’s Coronation celebrations from around the country. From there, they’ve been in demand playing both locally and events further afield, including Widecombe Fair and Clovelly Herring festival.
Their songs include unique takes on traditional shanties to represent the female perspective, original material based on local legends such as Nanny Moore and songs written by Cornish women such as Brenda Wootton.
They’re very excited to be performing this year and can’t wait to sing for you all!
This group is headquartered at micropub, The Barrel at Bude, “probably the best small pub in Cornwall”, per The Sunday Times.
