SpitNights | poets v singers

SpitNights | poets v singers is a live night in London in which spoken-word poets and singers take turns on the same stage. The event takes place at Number 90, a London venue for concerts and shows.

SpitNights presents an evening that sets poets against singers, with the two kinds of performer sharing the bill rather than appearing in separate sessions. The format puts spoken word and sung material side by side, so the audience moves between verse delivered without music and songs built on melody and voice.

Number 90 hosts concerts and shows in London, and this night is staged there as one of its live events. The programme is aimed at listeners who follow poetry, song or both, and who want to hear the two art forms in the same room. Because the bill mixes performers from both sides, the evening suits anyone curious about how spoken word and singing interact on a single stage.

For booking purposes, the title alone describes the concept: a contest-style pairing of poets and singers, presented in London. Further details about the individual performers and the running order are not available to me, so the description stays with the format itself.
