CORNWALLS’ SING IT HOME ARTISTS
Falmouth Shout
20 friends who like to sing shanties together and raise money for vital local charities like Cornwall Air Ambulance. Critical Care Paramedic Jeremy has sung with Falmouth Shout for a number of years and is delighted to ‘Sing it Home’ for Cornwall Air Ambulance.
Lottee Brown
Lottee Brown is a 22-year-old singer/songwriter from Cornwall. Starting her performing career at 14, she immediately made an impact with her blues powerhouse vocals, influenced by the likes of Big Mama Thornton (the now Bessie Smith), Sister Rosetta Tharpe, (the original soul sister) and Janis Joplin. Lottee was subsequently dubbed ‘The New Blue-Eyed Queen of Soul’ by American DJ, Deirdre Gilmartin of WDVR FM Radio.
The Stowes
The Stowes are a Cornish band who play a stimulating mix of traditional and original songs, rousing sea shanties and scintillating, foot stomping instrumental arrangements of mainly Cornish, Irish and Scottish origin, as well as some American old time influence thrown in for good measure.
Kana
Kana is a seven-piece female harmony group with a growing collection of self-penned pieces, along with sensitive and skilled arrangements of beloved folk classics. From quiet, reserved harmonies to air-punching shouts, their setlist is designed to captivate audiences from the first song to the last.
Foresail
Four friends who came together in the last 4 years with a love of performing a wide range of music from traditional shanties to Cornish, folk and songs of the sea. We balance the rambunctiousness of the shanties with more harmonious lyrical songs. Cornwall Air Ambulance Critical Care Paramedic Jeremy is one of the four and we are building on our experience and song lists by performing in pubs and festivals around the South West.
Kana Kres
Milly, Issac, Paige, and Jake are talented young people who just love to make music. They have joined together to form this fabulous quartet, Kana Kres and are wowing audiences throughout Cornwall. Last year they performed in-front of West End star Lucie Jones at a dinner raising funds for Cornwall Air Ambulance.
Tom Cary
Tom is a cutting-edge British Country artist based in Cornwall, voted ‘Country Vocalist of the Year 2022’ by the SME Enterprise Awards and reached iTunes number #1 selling UK country artist. He is also a proud supporter of Cornwall Air Ambulance, having completed his fantastic challenge, cycling from John O’Groats down to the Isles of Scilly and performing a gig every night for 20 nights!
Shane Solomon
With a passion for Cornwall, Shane wears many hats and when he is not busy filming for Cornwall Channel or bringing celebrities to the county as a Cornwall Ambassador, he can be found behind a microphone singing in the Cornish community.
Barrett's Privateers
Based on the Cornish side of the beautiful Tamar Valley, Barrett’s Privateers are at the fore in East Cornwall with their raw power and broad harmonies. Their repertoire spans a range of shanties, Cornish songs and traditional folk music. Barrett’s Privateers are a group of friends who have been drawn together by their love of singing and a desire to maintain the tradition of singing in pubs.
Fox Rox Choir
St Dennis Band
St Dennis Band is extremely proud of its heritage with early records traced to the mid 19th Century. Believed to have been formed in 1838 as part of the festivities in connection with the Coronation of Queen Victoria, it has continued to function by voluntary contributions up to the present time. Today we celebrate their musical talents with a track on our Sing it Home album.
inTune
inTune is a fabulous Cornish choir consisting of an amazing community of women. They sing, laugh, perform and raise money for charity. They give it all they’ve got and strive to better themselves, delivering high quality performances across Cornwall.
The Oggymen
Boscastle Buoys

Featured on our new album are two tracks never previously released; the first called ‘Blades in the Sky’ which was written by BAFTA Award winner, Ben Bartlett and performed by many community group choirs before the Covid pandemic.
