fired up, inspired and highly entertained by the VERBAL REMEDIES tour!
Music and poetry to provide a much-needed shot of passion, humour and
inspiration in these turbulent times.
Monday May 4th 2009 sees the VERBAL REMEDIES tour arriving in Nottingham.
Featuring Oxford Slam Poetry Champion DANNY CHIVERS:
“Oxford’s witty eco-warrior” – Truck Festival
“Half master of witty banter, half eerily reasonable prophet of
environmental Armageddon” – Radio Foreplay
“A star in the making” – John Rivers, Fifth Estate
Featuring the smutty wit and cheeky satire of ALEX IAMB:
"Big hair, a big gob and a very big talent...Alex is a real ball of
literary energy, who writes and performs as he sees the world" – Speakeasy
Club
And beautiful, powerful protest tunes from SPENCER JUDE PEARCE and his
selection of musical alter egos:
"Delicate melodies are drawled, whispered and murmured...beautiful
guitar-work with elements of Bob Dylan, T.Bone Burnett and Greg Lake." -
