Notes
Choreographed on January 26, 2021.
The internet sea shanty sensation. Entirely choreographed on Zoom, for Zoom. The first native Zoomington dance not adapted from existing dances (though its form borrows heavily from Fieldtown).
Music
Choose either Bm or Em depending on musician or singer preference. Or mix 'n' match for extra fun. If we ever perform this in person, dancers will sing the chorus as the intro.
