St Nicholas Priory’s volunteer team invites you warmly to support their fundraiser!
Enjoy an evening of piano and poetry, with local singer/songwriter Nicole Tate Hall, who will be entertaining us with some of her songs, telling us how she left London and settled in Exeter. This will be interspersed with some old poems about London, some written as far back as the 17th century, read by Lorraine Arrell, who will also be reading her poem about Exeter, entitled ‘Dark of the City’.
Nicole is a singer songwriter who performs rock-folk-pop melodies on piano. She has written music since she was a kid, and her latest song themes are about leaving the modern grind behind. She is delighted to be playing her first gig in Exeter at the Priory since moving here recently from her hometown of London, where she performed numerous shows as a singer/actress/budding busker. Her influences are Kate Bush, Led Zeppelin and Fairport Convention.
Tickets £10.00, refreshments included.
