SOUNDBITES – Monthly Poetry Open Mic 

Live in the Assembly Bar + Kitchen!

Unfortunately Mark and Gill Connors are unable to appear.

However we’re pleased to say that Matt Nicholson has agreed to appear instead.

MATT NICHOLSON is all the way from East Yorkshire, and on the back of launching his 5th collection, Side-eye, in August, with Yaffle Press.

Matt is a prolific writer and performer who loves his job. He writes about life, love, and humanity, anything that moves him.

Bob Beagrie described Side-eye as ‘hard-edged vignettes through the lens of pragmatic
absurdism’, while Helen Mort described Matt’s poems as ‘capable of breaking your heart
and mending it again.’
