The Fisherman's Friends are a male singing group from Port Isaac, Cornwall, who sing sea shanties.^[1] They have been performing locally since 1995, and signed a record deal with Universal Music in March 2010. Whilst essentially an a cappella group, their studio recordings and live performances now often include traditional simple instrumentation.

Biography[edit]

The Fisherman’s Friends are a shanty group based in North Cornwall. Their performances combine traditional songs of the sea with more contemporary folk music and a large dash of humour.

The current members are brothers John and Jeremy Brown, John Lethbridge, Jason Nicholas, Toby Lobb, John McDonnell, and Jon Cleave.

In the original line-up, all of the members of the group 'grew up within half a mile of Port Isaac harbour' except for John McDonnell who is a Yorkshireman. Three were fishermen, and the others are linked to the sea through service as coastguards or lifeboatmen. In June 2014 Peter Rowe was the oldest member, at the age of 80. He died in January 2021 at the age of 88.^[2]

In 2009 BBC Radio presenter Johnnie Walker was in Cornwall on holiday and came across two of their homemade CDs. Walker's manager, Ian Brown, travelled to Port Isaac and was able to negotiate a recording contract worth £1 million for them with Universal Music Group who released their first commercial album the following year.^[3]

Jon Cleave is one of the MCs of the group and also the author/illustrator of the children's book series Gully^[4] as well as the full length, humorous novel Nasty Pasty.^[5]

They sing the chorus on Show of Hands' popular song Cousin Jack on Show of Hands' 'best of' CD 'Roots', as well as on the title track.

Repertoire[edit]

Their repertoire includes both shanties and other nautical songs, some of which are fairly lewd.^[6]With the addition of Jason & Toby (accordion and guitar) the group have added more musical accompaniment to their set. Billy and Toby are both supported by Vintage Guitars and regularly use their instruments on stage.

Gigs[edit]

The group performed at the 2010 Cornbury music festival in Oxfordshire,^[7] the Glastonbury Festival on several occasions, typically on the Acoustic Stage, but on one occasion performing on the Pyramid Stage and the Cambridge Folk Festival.^[8]The band have also appeared at Towersey Festival, Wickham Festival, Beautiful days, Costa Del Folk, Shrewsbury Folk Festival, Tunes in the Dunes, Boardmasters and Celtic Connections.

Because they are semi-professional, the band do not tour extensively and will usually embark on 12-15 date tours in November and February/March. They also often perform in Port Isaac, regularly singing on the platt (beach) in the summer for charity.

Recordings[edit]

The group had released three CDs themselves before signing with Universal. In 2002, under the name Port Isaac's 'Fishermen's Friends', they recorded an album, primarily to raise funds for the RNLI, which was released on the Clovelly Label, Catalogue Number CLCD12702. The album, entitled Fishermen's Friends Are Home from the Sea, has 20 tracks and was recorded in St Peter's Church Port Isaac on the 26 and 27 April 2002. All the tracks are sung in the traditional a cappella style. The album was engineered by Bob Whitney and produced by John Perkins. Their first album with Universal, Port Isaac's Fisherman's Friends, was recorded in St Kew Parish Church, Cornwall,^[9] and released in April 2010.^[8]

In 2010 they re-recorded their single, 'No Hopers, Jokers or Rogues', with new lyrics, in support of England's World Cup campaign in South Africa.^[10]

A second album with Universal, One and All, was released on 26 August 2013.^[11] The single 'Mary Anne', taken from the album, was released on 25 June 2013.^[12]

In July 2015 the album Proper Job was released on the Sony Music label, in association with the St Austell Brewery, who brew a beer of the same name. This album also saw the first appearance of new member Toby Lobb.^[13]

2018 saw the release of Sole Mates, an album produced by Giles Woolley and band member Toby Lobb. The band’s aim was to celebrate their history and create a simpler album that represented their live sound more accurately. Sole Mates was made up of tracks that the band had performed during their previous two tours and featured additional instrumentation from Phil Beer from Show of Hands and Emma Murfin from Cornwall-based folk act Black Velvet.
