Welcome to the second New Mersey Poets’ Blast! evening (upstairs) at Jimmy’s.

Blast! is music, Spoken Word, magic and comedy – and features some of Merseyside’s most talented performers.

For Blast #2 we have Spoken Word from the brilliant The Queen of Heartache -one of Liverpool’s most outrageous performers!

Jennifer Vaudrey is an outstanding singer and performer – Jen curates her own nights at the Unity and the Neptune theatres, and will be sprinkling her magic at Jimmy’s on the 24th.

Speaking of magic, Steve Price is an outstanding comedy magician who hosts his own Magic on the Mersey monthly event.

Mark J’s columns for United We Stand are legendary, and he will be joined by talented wordsmiths Laura Ferries and Louise Evans, along with the ever-excellent Give Poetry a Chance poet and curator Dan Cullinan.

There will be laughs aplenty (he assures us) from the mysterious Barry Comedy, and after the Blast Pop Culture Quiz Spot the Bastard (answer number 7 is ‘Every Tory Ever’), there will be comedy and spoken word from Saint Vespaluus. Saint headlined downstairs at Jimmy’s in October, and will be debuting his new poems ‘The Old People’s Retirement Home Pie Company’ and ‘Haulin’ Oats’.
