Tongue Fu return to #Bristol for this special anniversary show featuring the cream of Bristol's writers and musicians:
Chris Redmond - Poet, musician and Tongue Fu ringmaster, featured on BBC R1, 2, 4 & XFM.
Dizraeli - Genre-smashing rapper, slam-champion, multi-instrumentalist & singer. “Touching, funny stories of riots, atheism and Englishness... Dizraeli embodies 21st Century folk” Independent
Anna Freeman - Award winning novelist, hilarious stand up poet and host of Bristol Old Vic’s Blah Blah Blah.
Vanessa Kisuule - UK slam champ, eloquently smashing it between Don’t Flop rap battles and BBC R4’s Women’s Hour.
Malaika Kegode - Host of Milk Poetry and bright light of Bristol's poetry scene who has worked with Apples and Snakes Roundhouse & BBC News .
Riaan Vosloo - Bass player and arranger for NOSTALGIA 77 and Jamie Cullum.
Dan Moore - Keyboard player who's credits include Roni Size, Fred Wesley and Joss Stone.
Dave Smith - Drummer for Robert Plant and band leader with Loop Collective
Tongue Fu celebrates it’s tenth anniversary in 2017. Writer, musician, founder and host, Chris Redmond, invites extraordinary poets, comedians, storytellers and rappers to take risks; re-working material live, with jaw-dropping improvised soundtracks from a crack team of quick witted, genre- hopping musicians.
No two shows are the same and this irreverent blend of well crafted words, improv and music have earned them critical acclaim at music, poetry and literature festivals across the UK and around the world. Join us for this high energy, big hearted show. Part gig, part experiment, all fire.
