The Wellermen’s history is well-known: originators of the sea shanty trend on Tiktok, they’ve since gone from strength to strength. Their versions of ‘Misty Mountains’, ‘Nancy Mulligan’, and ‘Hoist The Colours’ have racked up billions of views & led them to appearances on shows like Ant and Dec, Last Week Tonight, The Colbert Show & more. The group have now returned with their new album ‘Northern Sky’. Among much-loved traditionals such as ‘Wild Mountain Thyme’, ‘Amazing Grace’, and ‘Red Is The Rose’, you will find more modern songs such as Johnny Cash ‘Hurt’ & a lively version of ‘The Nights'. The band also present originals ‘Northern Sky’ inspired by maritime life in the Hebrides in the 18th century, and the humorous ‘Tall Tales’ - a one-upmanship of the telling of wild sea adventures. Say the Wellermen: “It’s all about connection and storytelling, and we hope the listeners are able to find something meaningful.” One thing is certain: these talented men are in it for the long haul.

We wanted to take a moment to say thank you for all the love!
Northern Sky (with @rosebettsmusic ) has only been out a few days, and we’ve absolutely loved seeing all your thoughts on this new version! 🌌
Northern Sky means the world to us as our first original, so it’s incredible to see such a positive reaction to this fresh take. This week has been amazing, reminiscing on the writing process and sharing it all with you.

For Your GRAMMY® consideration - We’re excited to share that our album ‘Northern Sky’ is on the ballot for Best Folk Album, as well as Best Arrangement, Instrumental or A Cappella for ‘Amazing Grace’ (arranged by the incredible Jon Smith Music
We pour immense dedication, creativity, and passion into all our music, but our album Northern Sky holds a special place for us, and to see it being considered is an unmatched feeling. Huge thanks to Jon and all the other amazing collaborators that made the album what it is - your hard work brought this project to life and made this recognition possible.
To our fellow Recording Academy Voting Members and colleagues, we’d be honoured if you took a moment to listen to the project. We hope you enjoy the music as much as we enjoyed creating it, and we deeply appreciate your consideration.
As we always say, we’re just five lads who love to sing, so to be able to turn that love into art, collaborate with such incredible creatives, and have it recognised in this way is truly a dream come true.
Thank you, The Wellermen 👨🏻🦰👨🏼🧑🏻🦱👨🏼🦱👱🏻
