For over a decade, this Bristol-based band of buccaneers have been bringing the ‘rock n roll of 1752’ to rooms full of smiling, swashbuckling fans the world over. 

Now, after 12 years of charting courses through treacherous waters, from the foggy shores of Europe to the bustling harbours of North America, The Longest Johns are ready to bring their raucous, rollicking sea shanties down under.

In May, the crew will dock in a city near you, ready to unleash their four-part vocal harmonies with fiddles and drums in tow. With five albums under their hefty belt buckles, including their latest, Voyage, released earlier this year, The Longest Johns are on a mission to turn every Aussie venue into a maritime tavern to be filled with roaring sing-alongs and the clinking of flagons.

The Longest Johns have not only graced the stages of international folk festivals but have also amassed a staggering 400 million streams, half a million YouTube subscribers, and over 200,000 hours of Twitch views. They’ve partnered with some of the biggest names in gaming including Ubisoft, Sea of Thieves, Ship of Fools, Wanderworld and even laid down the soundtrack for No Man’s Wife, a new film from the co-producers of the Fisherman’s Friends films.

Expect to be swept away by iconic tunes like Drunken Sailor, Hammer and The Anvil, Wellerman, and even sea-shanty-infused classics like Proud Mary and Santania.
