Fishermen Choir
Ann Varle hears how a group of sailors in Cornwall, The Fisherman's Friends, have combined making records with being fishermen.
Just months ago, The Fisherman's Friends, became the unlikeliest chart contenders to sign to a major record label. The group from Port Isaac netted a deal with Universal after being spotted singing in a pub. The 10 men, all involved in the fishing industry as fishermen, coastguards or lifeboat men have sung together for more than 15 years. This week, On Your Farm explores how the group combines music with their day jobs and looks at what impact the sea has had on their songs.
