Pembroke Chantey Sing: Historic Songs of the Sea Community Sing-Along

The Pembroke Library is honored to have Kate McCann as the chantey leader and banjo balladeer for the August 20 Chantey Sing. 

McCann has been studying and performing historic songs of the sea for many years and was recently awarded a two-year scholarship towards a master’s degree in ethnomusicology at Memorial University in St. John’s, Newfoundland. She is among a rising group of young people who have taken to singing songs of the sea, keeping the tradition going.
