Songs About Seafarers! (online ukulele session)

Details

Ahoy, me hearties! The 25th of June of each year is the "Day of the Seafarer", recognising the invaluable contribution seafarers make to the world economy. Our playlist will include:

The Wellerman (sea shanty)
Drunken Sailor (sea shanty)
South Australia - The Seekers
Sloop John B - Johnny Cash version
Banana Boat Song - Harry Belafonte
Pay Me My Money Down - Bruce Springsteen version
Sailing - Rod Stewart
Orinoco Flow - Enya
Six Months In A Leaky Boat - Split Enz
The Irish Rover - The Dubliners

If you can only attend part of the session or can only join in late, feel free to do so - your entry will not disrupt the session because of the Zoom settings I have chosen. Also, don't worry about making mistakes - I will use the mute button lots so nobody can hear your mistakes when we are playing together :)

What do I need?

  • A ukulele (please tune it before starting - search Youtube for help)
  • A computer/laptop/tablet - anything with a large screen to see the songsheet.
  • Earphones/headphones - to get the clearest sound
  • a reasonably good Internet connection

The session is free but if you like our sessions and want to contribute to our operating expenses please make a small donation to:
Paypal: https://paypal.me/fihanafiah
OR
message me if you prefer to use the standard bank transfer method.
