Lytham St Annes Shanty Crew
@lsasc.bsky.social
Formed Oct 2015 on the Fylde Coast, we sing traditional shanties and original sea songs for camaraderie and to raise funds for charity - primarily the RNLI. First major gig sold out at the 2016 Lytham Festival. Supported Jools Holland at Wonderhall.
This evening (28/06/25) the crew are singing at the Solstice Arts Festival (St Stephens-on-the-cliffs, Holmfield Road, Blackpool, FY2 9RG). First set at 7:30pm. Cash bar from 6:45pm. Tickets £10 on the door or via 07889 686 347.

The 2025 open rehearsal season is imminent!

Mostly, we rehearse Monday evenings behind closed doors in the boathouse, practising existing songs existing and learning new ones.

From May we open the doors and our rehearsals become informal performances, RNLI buckets there for donations. Details:
