Small Distractions Literary Salon
A literary salon exploring the connections between music and literature. We invited band members to Wax Bar (Leeds) to read their creative writing aloud. The evening was opened by cult classic author David Keenan (This Is Memorial Device, England's Hidden Reverse) in conversation with Lee Brackstone of White Rabbit Books. Artists read poetry and prose that has not made that journey from scribblings to lyrics, writing that occupies a different space entirely. Some of it was lovely, some of it was sickening. We recorded it all. You can hear it here. Volume 1 featuring: David Keenan in conversation with Lee Brackstone (White Rabbit Books) Ben Parry (Fuzz Lightyear, Shaene, The Oidz) Kurtis Brade (Prima Star Power) Jack Grant (The 113) PJ Johnson (Bug Teeth) Lily Fontaine (English Teacher) Created by Rhiannon Kane & Oscar Mckie Music by Gladboy Artwork by George Chadwick Hosted on Acast.
