Roy Harris (15 June 1933 – 9 February 2016) was a British folk singer known for his role in the starting the folk club movement in southern Wales in the 1960s. He was often referred to as the gentleman of folk song due to his warm personality and congeniality as a folk club host. Harris primarily sang unaccompanied sea and military songs. He later recorded that song and other powerful military songs on the album The Rambling Soldier (Fellside Recordings, FE 017). Harris started out in folk music by playing washboard in a skiffle group (a blues/jazz-inspired type of folk music with a blues or jazz flavour that was popular in the 1950s and 1960s) at small folk clubs in England. He was stationed at RAF St Athan and met his future wife Elaine at a local dance in 1955.
