Mike & Val James, leaders
Mike and Val hail from the Port Townsend music scene where they are the foundation of maritime music happenings. They perform individually and as a couple in genres ranging from jazz, children’s music, inspirational, and of course, sea chanteys. Mike and Val have been in chantey bands such as Nelson’s Blood, Victory Sings at Sea, and Constellation’s Crew. With a tender song on the guitar or a rollicking halyard chantey, they will certainly keep the sing-along a-going along.
