Imagine you go out one weeknight to meet a friend or two and have a beer at a local bar or pub.
This particular night happens to be open mic night; you listen to various types of music from musicians with various levels of talent. But, then it’s announced that the next performer is a poet. You can feel the mood of the room change, perhaps an audible groan escapes from someone.
You didn't come here to hear about shattered lives, rainbows and unicorns, some abstract concept or the personal tragedy of some stranger, you came out to enjoy yourself, relax hear some music..
"Down With Poets" was recorded with this in mind. Each of these twenty pieces have been read in bars and pubs in Maine and New York hundreds of times.
They usually get a laugh or two, not that I don’t on occasion slip in a serious one, and yes I have included a couple of love poems as well.
But I have to say these recordings are unique and enjoyable. The music and sound effects behind the pieces were chosen to enhance the reading to add a more complete listening experience. So sit back relax and get "Down With Poets"..
