SOUNDBITES – Monthly Poetry Open Mic

Live in the Assembly Bar + Kitchen!

Readings by a different local published poet each month and this month we're delighted to welcome Doug and Maria Sandle

She has performed, for example, at High Wolds Poetry Festival 2023, Heart Music Night, Headingly Market, Leeds Railway Station, Meanwood Valley, Meanwood Waitrose, and Leeds Book Club. Several of her poetry songs can be found online at Band Camp.
