THE OGGYMEN AT WHEAL MARTYN

Words by Nikki Hotchin

The Oggymen will be at Wheal Martyn Clayworks on Thursday 20 April 2023 to open their programme of music events for 2023.

Enjoy Cornish Folk old and new – performed acapella style.

From Falmouth, The Oggymen have built a reputation for tight harmonies and inspiring performances that convey the rugged beauty of the Duchy of Cornwall. For over a decade, they have championed contemporary Cornish folk music and celebrated those precious songs that bind us to our landscape, to our community and to our past.

Join The Oggymen to hear their acclaimed arrangements of the songs that have been sung in communities of Cornish people past and present.  Their wide repertoire ranges from trade union songs appropriated by Cornish miners in the 1980’s, to those songs sung at Falmouth Working Boat regattas and Cornish pilot gig races within recent memory.
