LOU HICKEY: Lyrical pop with a
vintage twist! Lou shares tunes from her latest EP Minutes, Hours, Days.
CAROLINE BIRD: Critically acclaimed poet
and playwright. Bird is also, without a doubt, one of the most powerful live
poets in the UK, whose readings combine wit, humour and a sense of delivery not
always found in poets who write initially for the page. Bird’s most recent
collection Watering Can (Carcanet Press) received a Poetry Book Society
recommendation.
SOPHIE COOKE: Cooke's work deals with the
concealment of truth on various levels, from personal self-deceptions to
governments misleading the public. She is the author of the novels The Glass
House and Under The Mountain.
Music from the highly recommended LAKE
MONTGOMERY!
And the spellbinding VOICEBOX
