[p][/p]Questions and Answers
- [p]What is a Sea Shanty?[/p][list]
- [p]Sea shanties are old sailors’ work songs, sung to keep rhythm during tough tasks like hauling ropes or hoisting sails. Led by a shantyman, crews would join in with strong, simple choruses to turn hard labor into something almost musical. With tales of the sea, lost loves, and far-off ports, these songs kept spirits high and hands moving - salt-soaked teamwork, set to a beat.[/p][/*]
- [p]The minimum submission type for the event are the lyrics to your shanty. It doesn't need to be very long - just enough to make a lively, sea shanty tune out of it.[/p][/*]
- [p]If you have more questions, just chat with us on the
channel on Discord. We'll help you out as much as we can.[/p][/*]
