The counter-cultural publishing house presents an evening of eclectic authors, artists and musicians, including Jarvis Cocker, Sheena Patel and Musa Okwonga.
Bringing together some of the most exciting talent in literature, music and art, this evening of culture curated by Rough Trade Books is a rare occasion to witness a multi-format celebration of independent writing and music.
The event features brand new animation work from Marcel Dzama, accompanied by live music and dance from dancer Francesca Thakorlal, as well as exciting new poetry from Sharan Hunjan, one of the 4 BROWN GIRLS WHO WRITE collective who shares work from her debut collection, Open Mouths.
Award-winning authors including Musa Okwonga read from their Rough Trade Books-published works, before the all-conquering Sheena Patel gives a reading from I’m A Fan alongside a new visual and sonic artwork composed by Mark Leckey.
Jarvis Cocker talks us through the music that fed into his brilliant book Good Pop, Bad Pop while Richard Phoenix discusses his non-fiction debut Do Your Own Thing before introducing the band Electric Fire.
Craig Oldham’s In Loving Memory of Work is also presented with a miners’ strike film narrated by Maxine Peake and accompanied by live music.
Expect surprises and entertainment throughout this evening to remember.
