News & INFO
The Mercantillers are a seasoned
New York City septet that performs an upbeat and
exciting blend of traditional and original
sea-chanteys, bluegrass, folk music and rock-n-roll.
The band started playing together full-time after their
first impromptu performance nearly eight years ago at
the Lower East Side's famed Collective Unconscious
Theater.
The group has been bringing their
reelin' and rockin' sets of their original tunes,
familiar folk songs, and sing-along chanteys to
audiences throughout Manhattan, Brooklyn, and as far as
Cape Cod.
