Drinking songs are always a favorite at the pub and chantey sessions. I’ll be presenting some uncommon drinking songs that I think are well worth singing, some as old as 1808 and some recently composed or old songs that I’ve added new verses to. Most of these songs have choruses or refrains but a few are ballads. I will be leading the songs for the first 15 minutes and then inviting two friends to lead some other songs. Most of the songs will be unaccompanied but some will be accompanied by 5-string banjo.
