The Kids Are Alright and Ready to Rock!
This year’s Words & Music Festival gets off to a rocking start with Tuesdays, the festival’s live music and spoken word night, featuring the debut performance of Nantwich School of Rock.
Launched in early 2024 as a spin-off from the festival, Tuesdays was created to give songwriters and poets an opportunity to perform their work. Almost three years on, it has developed a reputation for its eclectic and unpredictable mix of performers, welcoming everyone from solo artists and bands to poets, authors, rappers and freestylers.
Musical styles range from folk, blues and Americana to country, jazz and pop. Cover versions are certainly not banned, but original work remains at the heart of the evening. Every session is different from the last, and no two nights are ever the same!
The night is co-hosted by internationally acclaimed songwriter and musician Nigel Stonier and fast-emerging duo Nastee Chapel, who will perform some of their own material and introduce a diverse line-up of acts.
The group will showcase original songs written over the past few months and rehearsed during their weekly sessions, giving the young performers the opportunity to share their creativity and hard work with a live audience.
With original music, spoken word and an ever-changing mix of performers, Tuesdays promises a lively opening to this year’s Words & Music Festival.
Doors open at 7.30pm. Seats are limited, so arrive early!
