The Oggymen

Cornish folk singers with their hearts deeply rooted in the heritage and tradition of expressing their loves, beliefs, hopes and fears through music. Their music charts the history of Cornwall’s Methodist past, the hardships of life as a tin miner, the peril of those at sea, or the lament of the cousin jack, longing for family and familiarity whilst working a long way from home. Growing up in Falmouth was an inspiration as their fathers sung in male voice choirs, friends sung after working boat races and gig rowing. They strive to do their part to stop the music, songs and culture from being lost forever. You’ll find The Oggymen singing in pubs, alongside harbours and at Cornish folk festivals.

Often mistaken for a choir, they make no claim of technical accuracy and, whilst endeavouring to make a decent noise, refuse to take themselves too seriously.
