Bridge Over Smithdown Vol II: The Music Edition

Details

Jazz and poetry unite! Join us for our latest poetry book launch with a twist. A live performance of the music edition!

The Bridge Over Smithdown Vol II: The Music Edition is the second poetry anthology of local Liverpool poets curated by Smithdown Social Arts Hub. But for this edition, we added music to the mix! Poets selected for the poetry competition had an opportunity to improvise with jazz musicians, Mike Hughes, Frank Griffiths and Ben Parkinson, at reading events at Gallery 455 in May '24. The musicians made recordings of the improvisations and set off to select up to ten poems from these readings to be included in the poetry and music concept album. This event will launch the poetry print book, the audio book (all poets had the opportunity to record their poems in a professional recording studio in Toxteth) and the music edition concept which will be played live on the night! Come join us for an exciting event at the iconic Palm House and support local writers and musicians and of course your favourite local artist gallery on Smithdown Road!
