</b><i>Sea shanties</i> are the work songs used on ships during the
<i>Age of Sail</i>.<b> </b>Join Michael Goddard
on tenor banjo, bodhran, and tin whistle, as he presents some of these
maritime songs from primary historical documents. Fun for the whole
family, shanties have loud choruses that everyone can learn
quickly! A history teacher at Billerica Memorial High School and
adjunct professor at Middlesex Community College, Mike has been studying
New England history and singing folk songs for over 11 years. Based in
Lowell, Massachusetts, he has played music in coffee shops, campgrounds,
summer camps, family kitchens, and many a public house! The show will be
about 30-40 minutes followed by a Q & A.<br>
