Bluegrass fans always love a good sad song, and what could be more morose than a shipwreck in the freezing waters off Alaska’s coast?
That is the subject of The Scandies Rose, the second single from Daniel Crabtree’s just-released album, Storms on the Ocean. It retails a true story of the vessel that gives the song its title, a commercial crabbing ship which sank on December 31, 2018 after capsizing from ice buildup along her starboard side.
