Jim Mageean & Graeme Knights

This is Jim’s 50th year running Shanty Sessions at Whitby Folk Week. In that time the sessions have moved all around the town finally settling at their home in The Endeavour over 20 years ago. Graeme joined Jim at that time and the duo have been running the daily sessions ever since. With the help of many supporters they have raised over £50,000 for Whitby Lifeboat with daily raffles, auctions etc and a lot of silliness. The theme changes every day but shanties and sea songs are compulsory. Secret special guests drop in so come and join Jim & Graeme with the Maritime Fun. Come early for a seat!
