Loose Cannons

Loose Cannons is a UK maritime music group.

Loose Cannons is a group of five friends who have many years’ experience singing with other shanty groups. We decided to get together in 2023 to get back to singing some of the songs we love in a smaller acoustic group, able to rock up and sing in smaller venues without the need for lots of PA gear, a kind of shanty Flying Squad! We hit the ground running in 2023 with successful gigs at Falmouth, Weston, St. Ives and Mevagissey, as well as many smaller venues. Since then we have adopted the Fisherman’s Mission as our charity and have been lucky enough to attract sponsorship from the Harbour Tavern in Mevagissey.Our style is entertaining, with lots of audience participation but, as our name suggests, you never know what to expect from Loose Cannons! We hope to see you  and make you smile!
