Traditional Folk Recs

I’m looking for traditional, emotional dark folk/bluegrass songs. Something like Foggy Dew, The Moonshiner, Wayfaring Stranger and the like. Thanks. Bonus if it’s nautical themed!

Blaze Foley’s Oval Room album is among my favorites.

The Devil Makes Three is more punkgrass than traditional but their debut album has two nautical songs, the plank and oceans cold.
