    I was looking for Hurdy Gurdy too. Like 2 weeks back. I didn't even know this instrument really existed before Sea of Thieves. So I tried to search for it and this was the first result.

    From her channel, I like this Irish sounding song.
    And also her Sweet Dreams is astounding :)

    @cows-n-muffins I like it, pretty cool. Thanks for sharing!

    @cows-n-muffins
    I think itโ€™s pretty obvious what needs to be done. Rare is going to need to bring her in to help get us more songs for our hurdy gurdy.

    I'm kind of partial to this guy

    That sounded really eerie but very beautiful at the same time. Weird.

    Edit: Also, to add to this thread, here's a really interesting video from Bear McCreary, composer for Black Sails (a really good pirate show I can highly recommend while waiting for Sot!) about the Hurdy Gurdy.

    @racmop That guy is definitely pretty good.

    Patty is great! Stumbled across the band she was in and then her version of "longing". Great artist.

    The hurdy gurdy is a fantastic instrument and can create such a variety of feelings, as evident just on whats posted on this thread thus far! Its also a massive pain in the a**e instrument that can be screwed by humidity haha which totally adds to its charm that people make them sound as good as they do.

    @airikr01 How did I not remember that video! That was the first place i saw this instrument actually

    Consider me inspired! I really hope they get more Hurdy Gurdy tunes in the game. Perhaps different Gurdys will play different tunes?? That might be a special non game breaking thing that people could strive for.

    The lyrics for "The Longing"

    I've seen many men wandering
    all strong and brave and keen
    Seen them growing into rulers
    but I long for the sea
    Heard a ship came from North
    to our harbour for a day
    and before misfortune knows
    I'll be on my way

    I'm all set to veer away
    and I'm all set to go astray
    All burdens I will leave ashore
    to find what I've been longing for

    Donโ€˜t tell anyone
    that this night I'll be gone
    Greeting the eternal blue
    right at the break of morn
    Sailing tโ€˜wards the unknown
    with my crew on the sea
    And the day that I return
    a hero I shall be

    I'm all set to veer away
    and I'm all set to go astray
    All burdens I will leave ashore
    to find what I've been longing for๏ปฟ.

    I've been following Patty Gurdy for some time. She is also in a pirate band called Stormseeker.

    She has the most amazing hurdy gurdies. I have a very crude and primitive one that I'm just starting to figure out.

    I can't explain why but I'm hooked. I just got her EP from iTunes lol

  • UncleMetrik

    Her solo album should be coming out soon.

    I'm partial to Green Gurdy

  • UncleMetrik

    @lasher-mx Have you seen her do "The Longing" with her friend. Cello and Gurdy.

    @casesugar401098 That band sounds pretty good! Definitely some solid pirate songs.

  • Oldsk00L1964

    I posted about her about 2 or 3 weeks ago with the Pirate Metal Band, Storm Seeker. Look 'em up
