The Springbank Voyage – Barry Nisbet Album Launch
Join Barry Nisbet and friends for the launch of his new album, ‘The Springbank Voyage’ at the Tall Ship, the Glenlee.
Thursday 18 August, 2022 at 7.30 p.m.
In June 1908 the Clydebuilt sailing barque ‘Springbank’ sailed from Leith, loading a cargo of coal in Hamburg before setting out on a 14,000 mile voyage round Cape Horn to Santa Rosalía, Mexico.
Her crew included a woman from Liverpool, a captain from Newfoundland, and several Shetlanders and Orcadians.
Heartbreak, danger and wonder follow the ship’s traumatic voyage to her destination.
This all-new musical telling of the story, recorded in Spring 2022, includes a talented cast of Scottish musicians, and incorporates sample archive recordings from Shetland storyteller Lawrence Tulloch (1947-2017).
