New Ginsters Ad.

[moonraker558]

Hi all, does anyone know who is singing on the new Ginsters ad aired tonight?

A lyric search doesn't recognise the song, so it's almost certainly been written and recorded especially for the ad. That, in turn, means that the advertising agency (Red Brick Road) could have used any singers that they liked and, quite possibly, just booked several session singers (rather than any existing folk group) to perform it.

Dunno, moony. But if this is the ad maybe someone will know who they are.

[moonraker558]

Thanks to you both, I have searched but drawn a blank. I have a friend who lives in Cornwall and sings for a well known choir but he cannot she’d any light on it but he is probably better placed to dig something up.

I'm sure that you'll find out eventually, moony. Probably when the ad is a few weeks old.

It’s a specially composed piece from Native Music

Sounds quite like the fishermans Choir from Cornwall? The ones they made a film about.

[Cetti]

Sounds a bit like the Fishermans Friend choir.

Sounds a bit like the Cornish choir, Fisherman's Friend

The answer provided by ChrisJSmith88, above, it the official response from Ginsters on their Facebook page:

Now a question...are you going to buy their pasties?
(IMO, when I had one many moons ago, it was too salty, too greasy and there wasn't enough meat!)
