The Bookshop Band
11th Mar 2016 • 7:30PM – 8:30PM
Mitchell Library, North St, Glasgow G3 7DN
Performing at Aye Write! for the first time, The Bookshop Band. They are Ben Please and Beth Porter, who write songs inspired by books and play them in bookshops and at book festivals. Their performances are inextricably linked to the books themselves, as the band take it in turns to describe where the inspiration for each song came from. They have toured all over the UK, Ireland and Europe, and have appeared regularly on radio and television. They are incredibly prolific songwriters and in 2016 will be releasing the equivalent of an album of new material a month!
Tickets: £10 plus transaction fee
