A set of beautifully executed songs from one of Scotland’s most gifted songwriters. Described as ‘The UK’s best lyricist’ by King Creosote in The Independent, Dan’s live solo performances are fragile, beautiful and uplifting.

Hannah Silva
Hannah Silva

A poet, playwright and performer known for her innovative explorations of form, voice and language in performance, her work explores a wide range of subjects: from political rhetoric (Opposition) to paranormal science (Total Man), teenage sexual identity (Orchid) to long distance running (Marathon Tales). Her current performance, Schlock!, is a meditation on pain, the body and the self, consent, complicity and ownership.

“One of the most ambitious and entertaining poets in the country” (The Times)

Ryan van Winkle

An Edinburgh-based poet and live-artist, Ryan has toured nationally and internationally including at the Erbil Literature Festival in Iraq; as part of the Auld Enemies tour, and the Wordstorm Festival in Darwin.

“Here is a new and authentic voice with a punch in the language” (Penelope Shuttle)
