Perciphone Petticoat at Ó Bhéal, Cork: Monday 18th June

Perciphone at Ó Bhéal, with Open-Mic


Monday 18th of June
8.30pm

From the United Kingdom, Perciphone Petticoat, poetry performer, writer, singer songwriter, musician and producer, is a fresh and entertaining face in the world of performance poetry. She has been writing and singing since early childhood and collaborates with other musicians to make ambient and peace enhancing sounds. Perciphone uses enchanting lines, beguiling and pallatable; weaving their way in and out of the cold hard truths often being projected.

From surreality to social dysfuntion - sexuality to empathy, fairytales to self harm, Perciphone Petticoat often flirts on a rather risque edge. However, pertinent subjects delivered graphically, are often skillfully tempered according to musicality and backing sounds: allowing ideas that would otherwise be unpallatable - to be considered.

Guest poets read from 8.30/9.00pm. Entrance is free. Readings will last between 30-60 minutes after which there will be the usual open-mic session. Be sure to come early to get good seats.
