XXL
The crew was formed just about two years ago with a nucleus of three and up to
eight at times as the shanty singers to the last Lowestoft sailing trawler
Excelsior, hence the name XXLsior, so you can see that it nothing to do with
the size of the singers or the designer label that is in their clothing.
The side are Suffolk-based and sing popular sea songs and shanties, and have
been known to burst into other types of folk music. Apart from their voices
they have guitar, whistle, melodeon, concertina and harmonica available for
whatever the venue requires.
