I am a member of The High Desert Seamen, a group that sings sea shanties and wassailing songs on 12/24 each year. Roll The Old Chariot is one of our songs. We add new verses in every year. David Coffin, in this viddie is truly inspiring. He has much to teach us all.
He's been very active on tiktok too, singing different versions of these old songs, taking requests, and singing with others. I don't know anything about his personal life, but in shanties he's awesome.
My top shantyman, though, is Tom Lewis. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqUNwvOLzpk
Your group sounds awesome! I have always loved shanties and sea-songs; I should look for a local group that takes random idiots.
We live in the high mountain desert, far from navigable waters, and so singing sea shanties and wassailing songs at Xmas Eve seemed a natural development. We welcome random idiots, fools, and other amusing people to join.
