The Longest Johns are a Bristol-based vocal trio known for tight harmonies and sea shanties that have captivated listeners worldwide. Comprising JD Darley, Andy Yates, and Robbie Sattin, they blend traditional folk tunes with modern energy, often performing a cappella and arranging songs with maritime storytelling at the heart of every performance. Their breakout moment came in 2021 when a Wellerman recording helped spark a global sea shanty trend on TikTok, propelling the band onto larger stages and securing a deal with Decca Records the same year.
