There are quite a few shanties with Irish influence in them but not actually coming from Ireland. There are also many shanties that are a mix of African/American and Irish influences. "He Bang, She Bang" with it's "too-ry-ah" chorus is one. "Roller Bowler" with "hey-rig-a-jig" in the choruses is another. Some Irish songs, like "The Harp Without a Crown" were used as sea shanties.

"Billy O'Shea" is an example of a recently composed shanty - it probably dates to the 1960's.
