SETTLE Sessions will combine music and poetry at the town's historic Folly next Friday, July 1.
The evening will begin at 6.30pm with the group's annual reception and will be followed an hour later by entertainment from Chris and John Bousfield and their band, and Ed Reiss. All three are from Bradford.
Chris is fascinated by the music of poetry and how it often works unconsciously while John plays with the poetry/jazz group Nightdiver, enhancing and developing the musical implications of poetry.
And Ed had a poem, Your Sort, shortlisted for the Aldeburgh First Collection Prize 2011 and another, Ka’aba, was highly commended in the 2011 Forward Prize.
The open mic slot, Read Two, will be filled by Joan Lee, Veronica Caperon and Hazel Richardson.
Tickets cost £6 (£5.50 for members) and are available from Cave and Crag, The Courtyard Diary and The Folly.
