Men's shanty quartet Completely Scuppered leads a participatory, nautical-themed shanty night at The Jenny Lind.
Completely Scuppered are back at The Jenny Lind on Thursday 5 November, their shanty night running from 8:30pm to 10:30pm. It's a quartet of men who've been singing together for sixteen years, though they'll be the first to tell you it hasn't always been the same four of them at once.
Their songs draw on the grog, grot and grime of sailing the high seas, mixing well-known shanties with more obscure sea-related numbers. It's not a performance you just sit and watch, either. The whole thing is built on audience participation: you're encouraged to join in with the friendly and slightly bawdy group, or just listen and drink in the nautical atmosphere if that's more your speed. If you do want to sing along, songsheets are available by scanning QR codes dotted around the bar, so you don't need to know the words coming in.

They're a regular fixture here, but they also perform away from The Jenny Lind, so this is one of their local nights rather than a one-off. It runs from 8:30pm to 10:30pm at The Jenny Lind, 69 High Street, Hastings, East Sussex TN34 3EW.
