Latest up from Spoken Label, features the return of our friend, Jo Somerset.
Jo Somerset is based in Manchester. She completed a MA in Creative Writing in May 2020 at the University of Salford, where she received the Leanne Bridgewater Award for Innovation and Experiment. Like Isla, Jo grew up in Birmingham with an unspoken Celtic heritage. A love of the Hebrides and her experience with a blended family underlie Isla’s heartfelt
journey towards finding her origins and a new self-belief.
In this Podcast, we primarily talk about Jo's new book "Mission: Find Mum"
This book is described as "Isla and Lac's mum is missing, but has left clues, and an emergency credit card. The children travel from Birmingham to Mora, a Scottish island, camping and tracking their mum. Hampered by challenges and unsure of who to trust, can Isla and Lac succeed in their mission? What else will they find... and lose? For ages 10 and up."
The book can be bought directly from Stairwell books:

Latest up from Spoken Label features Toki Ward
from the band Onion Mash.
Onion Mash are a 4 piece female-fronted melodic
(mainly) hard-rock band formed in 2021, but as the name suggests, their music is a mash up- a little bit hard-rock, heavy metal elements off melodic, even a little punk with raw emotional vocals, big personalities and plenty of hooky riffs.

Latest up from Spoken Label (Poetry / Spoken Word Podcast) features making her debut is the amazing Courtney Ward.
Latest up from Spoken Label, making her debut is the amazing Kate Ireland.
Kate describes herself "Hi there, I'm an artist from Scotland with a fidgety brain.
I play with the boundaries of performance, installation, text, and community practice.
My art is all about fighting the urge to optimize ourselves through language and gathering.
It is also about connecting to the primal, childlike, strange and tender parts of ourselves.
I also love working with my pals and seeing creative projects as an excuse to parallel play."
This chat is primarily about her debut album with Locksy "Self Regulating Behaviours".
This album is described as "An audio-visual performance and pamphlet that explores the
relationship between the performer's behaviour and impulses in the face of neurotypical,
hyper-capitalist standards of optimisation. Accompanied by a Sheffield-based producer
and DJ, the performance features distorted words, missed phone calls, and increasingly
bizarre wellness rules. The pamphlet includes notebook sketches, scanned images, and
continuous writing, while the performance pushes spoken word into performance art,
film, and sonic art. "

Latest up from Spoken Label, features Levenshulme based poet, artist,
Based in Manchester, UK I work from my home studio creating body adornments, festival decor and offer workshops for you to learn a new craft and have lots of fun.
Heather describes herself as "I am a Human, flawed and vulnerable as you.
I wonder through our shared world with an insatiable appetite for connections with people like you and experiencing things visually, mentally, physically and spiritually in unique and stimulating ways.
I love dressing up.
It helps me to let go of inhibitions and enjoy myself in ways then when I'm not dressed up. I create jewellery because I love the idea of making something that you or someone you love will wear and experience that same feeling of letting go. Adorning ourselves in a costume or with body adornments is a form of self expression and tells others a little about ourselves through a visual language that doesn't really require verbal explanation.
I love celebrations.
Birthdays, festivals, parades, demonstrations, partnership ceremonies etc. I love to be in a crowd of people celebrating each other and life. So you wcan often find me at the heart of such moments in time."
