New venue for Oxford - The Old Fire Station
DIZRAELI confirmed
as guest for February
Hammer & Tongue
has had a busy time continuing its
successful work in schools and other educational venues as well
as creating stages at festivals.
This summer saw the launch of the LightFoot Sound System a bicycle
and solar powered public address system. This has been an
excellent tool for introducing kids to a creative response to
climate change. It is also a brilliant way to have zero carbon
entertainment at your event, workshop, festival or party.
If you
are interested in making use of this magnificent thing
contact
Steve at: events@hammerandtongue.co.uk or call the office on:
01865 403357.
The
Nail - Special Feature
'Reversing the Damage'
A climate change book / CD that contains poems, photo's,
drawings,
prose, articles and a whole CD of amazing performance poetry and song
including Will Holloway, Inflatable Buddha, Mark Browne and Seize The
Day, all responding to the issue of Climate Change. Available
at
any Hammer and Tongue event. Otherwise contact Steve Larkin or Sophie.

FEBRUARY'S
SPECIAL GUEST
STAR...
DIZRAELI

"... one of the greatest folk singers of all time, draws the biggest
crowd of the weekend... It's Dizraeli & The Small Gods, however,
telling touching, funny stories of riots, atheism, Englishness, through
folk, rap, spoken word and hymns, who embody 21st-century folk."
The Independent, August 2011.
“A standing ovation at the end (a near unheard-of phenomenon in
the sedate Poetry Tent … reaffirmed my continued belief that
whatever form Diz is playing in, he’s deserving of a much higher
status. Definitely one to catch at every opportunity.”
Music News
“[Bomb Tesco] is great man…brill track..love to play it on
radio 1 but I'd get sacked.”
Rob Da Bank (Radio 1)

all
events will feature an extended set by Dizraeli, an open
poetry slam (unless a final) and a
whole host of other talented spoken word artists.
