As part of Hackney Archives Black History Season, join us for an exclusive evening of music and poetry with special guest star Amaroun.
Amaroun is the latest project from multi-talented producer and songwriter Jay Brown, existing at the sonic crossroads where Erykah Badu, PJ Harvey, Eels and Feist meet. Songs about coming out, moving up and not being kept down, Amaroun creates a truly unique form of kaleidoscopic pop music for the 21st century. Join us at this exclusive event where Amaroun will be sharing their creative practice in poetry and sound.
After the live streamed set, step up for the OPEN MIC and respond to the theme of ‘Journey’ in whatever way you wish, through music, bars poetry or prose, there is no limit to your imagination.
