Chili's First Gig: A Spicy Addition to the Crew!

We’re diving into some sea shanty shenanigans this month, and trust me, you don’t want to miss it! We’re introducing our newest crew member, Chili, who’s ready to spice things up and share his wild stories about joining the Port of Bristol Shanty Crew. We’ll also be chatting with Skipper and Ash, getting the scoop on their journeys and what brought them to this ragtag band of merry sea singers. Plus, we've got some fun audio clips from our summer gigs, including our biggest event yet at Valleyfest, where we got to belt out our best tunes to a sea of smiling faces. So grab your favorite drink, sit back, and get ready for a rollicking good time with us on Shipshape and Bristol Fashion!
