That’s a bloody good question. The UK is politically, socially and economically at a crossroads, and the route to take not clear. No one has the answers, but some of the best musicians and poets have some thoughts. Amongst them are 2016 Ted Hughes Award shortlistees & poets Hollie McNish & Salena Godden, hip hop collective Stanley Odd, rapper Chester P, and poets Michael Pedersen, Kevin Williamson, Martha Sprackland & Will Burns

Created and curated by the countercultural Scottish Neu! Reekie! and Caught By The River, a collective celebrating the non digital in life, this event promises to be provactive, passionate and powerful.

Taking place on Wednesday 26th April at Caught by the River’s spiritual clubhouse, The Social, 5 Little Portland Street, London W1. Doors open at 7pm; tickets are £8 in advance and can be bought here.

Sounds kind of perfect? That’s what will be on offer at Caught By The River, a new two day festival to hit London this summer.
Taking place over the 6th and 7th August at Fulham Palace, the creators of the event (fresh from curating and promoting stages at Port Eliot, Festival No 6, Field Day and the Good Life Experience) describe the festival as ‘part gig, part literary gathering, part nature symposium, and part high-summer garden party.’
The line up is certainly diverse. Super Furry Animals and Low will be headlining, and joined on the music stages by Beth Orton, Mulatu Astatke, the Sun Ra Arkestra, Gwenno, and more, whilst the literature side of things is led by Kate Tempest, Faber & Faber, Amy Liptrot and Paul Kingsnorth. There’s also stages to be announced curated by stages from the Canal and River Trust, the Idler Academy, the Museum of British Folklore and the Caught by the River Bookshop.
Weekend tickets are only £55 and available here.
