Punk poet and singer-songwriter Attila The Stockbroker marks his tenth book of poems with a tribute to Paul Jackson of The Adelphi.
Attila The Stockbroker plays The New Adelphi Club on Saturday 21 November, with doors opening at 8pm. It's a night that sits at the intersection of poetry and performance, and it's got a bit more to it than just a set of poems.
Attila describes himself as a punk poet, dub ranter, singer-songwriter, early music punk pioneer, writer and social commentator. That's a lot of labels to fit into one person, and they all come through in the work. The show marks his tenth book of poems, so there's a fair amount of new material to hear. It also doubles as a tribute to Paul Jackson of The Adelphi, a close friend of many years, which gives the night a personal weight beyond the poetry itself.
The venue is The New Adelphi Club at 89 De Grey Street, HU5 2RU. It's one of Hull's most iconic independent rooms, a grassroots venue that's been at the heart of the city's cultural scene for decades and known across the UK music industry for helping launch the careers of countless artists who went on to international acclaim. Its programme runs across indie, rock, punk, folk, electronic and experimental, and it remains dog-friendly, with Blue Badge parking, level access and wheelchair-accessible facilities.
