“Drunken Sailor” von Nathan Evans
We travel back to a time where the whole world sang and swayed to omni present lyrics:
“Soon may the Wellerman come, to bring us sugar and tea and rum …”
NATHAN EVANS won peoples hearts with his cover of the 150 year old sea shanty and is finally back with a brand new track! Because this scott, who caused a global Shanty Hype with his Version of WELLERMAN, announces himself with the ever-so-important in his duffel bag: What shall we do with a drunken sailor?
With a remix to his version of DRUNKEN SAILOR (RE: 09/09/22) NATHAN EVANS x FORD once again steer towards the charts. And the 27 year old, who worked as mailman before his worldwide success, proves once again that the seas-shanty-phenomenon is everything but just a one-hit-wonder. On the contrary: After all WELLERMAN 2021 was not only the most popular single in Germany and Great Britain but also spent a sensational ten weeks at No. 1 on the official German-Single-Charts. Thus, it’s no surprise that NATHAN EVANS’ musical compass points straight towards shanties as a direction – and of course towards the end-all goal of making dance and party all over the world!
Hymnic EDM beats, typical folk sounds und last but not least NATHAN EVANS’ unmistakable voice with hit scottish accent not only turn the remix of DRUNKEN SAILOR into a ultimate festival hit, but take the Sea-Shanty-Hype to an entire new level. And just like that the gold and platinum singer-songwriter once again succeeds at delivering old sea shanties to peoples ears – and to all dancefloors of this world.
What shall we do with a drunken sailor,
What shall we do with a drunken sailor,
What shall we do with a drunken sailor,
Early in the morning?
What shall we do with a drunken sailor,
What shall we do with a drunken sailor,
Early in the morning?
Way hay and up she rises,
Way hay and up she rises,
Way hay and up she rises,
Early in the morning.
Almost exactly two years ago NATHAN EVANS was still delivering mail and uploading short clips to TikTok. Now this exceptional artist reflects an entire attitude of life with his sea shanty sound. All that, paired with his casual nature and danceable beats, moves the sea shanty hype not only to clubs all over the world but also answers the question of all questions: What shall we do with a drunken sailor?
