Jack Coutts is a member of the legendary shanty group Stormalong John. We sat down with Jack and his daughter Hannah aboard the Pilgrim at the world's largest sea music festival in Paimpol, Brittany for a chat and a sing in between sets.

And of course we get some singing in too!⚓︎ Shanties featured:- Live song: Pique la baleine, trad. arranged by Pressgan...
