Slogmåkane

Slogmåkane, a spirited sea shanty and Celtic-folk ensemble from Karmøy, Norway, has been bringing maritime heritage to life since 2004. Known for their "rock 'n' roll attitude," the 20-member group blends traditional instruments with bass and drums, creating a high-energy sound that landed them third place on Norway’s Got Talent in 2015. Their discography, including albums like *Row and A-Hollar!* (2014) and *I levande live* (2016), showcases their earthy vocals and nautical themes, while international accolades like the Shanties Grand Prix in Krakow highlight their global appeal.

With a repertoire spanning from rousing sea shanties to Celtic ballads, Slogmåkane’s live performances—fueled by a charismatic choir and foot-stomping rhythms—have drawn crowds across southern Norway. Recent releases like *The Three Captains* (2017) and *Hold fast* continue their mission to celebrate seafaring culture through music that’s as communal as a dockside singalong.
