Sofa Poets - Kitchen sink drama for the dishwasher generation .
Sofa Poets are a band from Sheffield, UK , comprised of ex members of cult indie group The Mirror Crack'd who recently featured on the Cherry Red compilation album Dreams To Fill The Vacuum. Feat. Pete Hiley on Guitar - also of Boy On A Dolphin!
Ian Whitehead:
Well known Singer / Acoustic Guitarist from Sheffield UK who you may have seen busking on a regular basis in and around the City.
He sang firstly on a regular basis in a church choir from about the age of 18 - 20, then later in a rhythm n blues band at university as lead singer. He has had roughly 3 years worth of singing lessons.
Ian is a self taught rhythm guitarist since the relatively late age of 27 which, combined with his discovery of song writing around the age of 24, has lead to him doing open mics, solo gigs and busking over the years.
He has done professional acting on an independent production level and still aims at the age of 55 to have considerable paid acting and music success.
He never gives in and always gives 100 per cent as a performer. He was once told by a fellow busker that he "holds court well"!!!!
Thom Cowley:
Sheffield-based Singer & Guitarist from the Mascarenes Islands in Africa who will entertain you with a stripped down, acoustic rendition of his very own mix of Folk, Blues & Indie-Rock.
His new album βThe Scenic Roadβ which has just come out will be available for purchase at the venue π½πΈπΆ
