Sea Shanties · Roll the Blackwater Home · 1 Hour Vocal Sea Shanty Album (Sons of the Blackwater)

Original Sea Shanties · Roll the Blackwater Home — a full-length vocal sea shanty album from Sons of the Blackwater. One ship, one crew, one voyage, sung from a cold northern harbor all the way home. Drop the mooring lines and sail the whole crossing in one sitting. The Blackwater leaves a grey home harbor on the morning tide, runs south into warm trade winds and island nights — Jost Van Dyke, White Bay, rum ashore at the Soggy Dollar and a girl who won't be forgotten — then turns for home straight into a red-sky morning and the storm that's been waiting on the reef. Men are lost. The ones left standing haul the old ship home anyway. Sixteen original songs, sequenced as one voyage in three acts — setting out, the islands, and the turn for home. Massed call-and-response in the old crew tradition: a full crew singing at full throat, big dynamic swells, raw and cinematic. Play it loud for the whole crossing, or keep it low behind work, focus, reading, or a long night at the wheel. This is the VOCAL edition — every verse, every chorus, the whole crew singing. An instrumental edition of Roll the Blackwater Home is coming as a separate release for quieter background listening. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ CHAPTERS ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ 0:00 Weigh the Anchor 4:04 The Blackwater Calls 7:06 Salt and Sky 10:20 The Shantyman 13:14 Trade Winds 16:29 Raise the Mug and Raise the Sail 20:04 The Soggy Dollar 23:16 A Girl in White Bay 26:48 Rum Runner's Roll 29:32 Red Sky Morning 34:31 The Reef 37:23 Down with the Grey 41:58 Roll the Blackwater Home 46:02 The Light on the Point 49:00 The Last Round 52:29 Weigh the Anchor (Reprise) ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Roll the Blackwater Home — an original concept album by Sons of the Blackwater.
