🎤 LINE-UP
Featured Acts:
Featured Poet - Ollie
Ollie is a poet and white van man. After being on the scene for a couple years now he's well versed in making audiences laugh with his witty rhymes and, question their world views by taking them on a journey through the deep holes he digs in his own head. You never know where you'll end up but it's always fun.
Featured Musician - Vibe Machine
Vibe Machine go out live as a 7 piece - 2 female vocalists, 2 male MC, 1 live drummer, 1 keyboardist and a live VeeJay. Our VeeJay Nikolai using a touch sensitive screen produces original art in real time, projected onto the stage as visuals, creating an experience unique to every Vibe Machine performance.
