Verses is ‘n multi discipline session wat by Zula Bar innie Long Street op elke laaste Woensdag vannie maand gehou word.

The ouense are celebrating their 4th birthday on Wednesday 27 August.

Hiesa’s ‘ie lineup:

Winslow Schalkwyk – A excellent spoken word poet in his own right, this bra will be hosting the evening’s proceedings.

Caroline Blackburn – She says she’s not a poet maar rather ‘n wordsmith. Sy beat prentjies uit haar woorde uit om vir audience te laat droom. She’s kak versatile and a powerful performer. She’s also the Lentswe Poetry Project Poet for Woman’s Day.

Claire Phillips – This lady needs no introduction to the Verses Audience. This talented & sultry honey-voiced singer/songwriter will soothe and excite you all with her unique blend of soul.

Verses awso has a open mic session where mense with kak limited talents like me can wys mense what they do. Stiek uit early to sign up.

Here’s ‘n short clip of my bra Kathy and me practicing for Verses open mic session.
