Have you ever been moved simply with words? No background music, no back-up singers,…just words and a microphone.
I shan’t give out too much information as this episode truly is unique but I introduce you lovely listener to the amazing world of performance poetry.
A very fortuitous meeting with a co-actor led me to meet his son, poet and musician, Jasper. I knew when I heard his story that I wanted to bring him on the podcast.
So I nudge you to have a listen and let yourself be transported by Jasper’s words.
Happy listening!
