At 9:00 PM on Tuesday, February 10th, tune in to the World Poetry Café Radio Show, when host Ariadne Sawyer and guest host Dr. Diego Bastianutti welcome poet extraordinaire, Hilary Peach!
HILARY PEACH (www.hilarypeach.com)is an audio poet, recording artist, festival director, arts activist, and producer. She has performed at events that include the Vancouver International Folk Music Festival, Montreal’s Voix d’Ameriques, and the Poetry International Festival in Rotterdam.
Her debut recording was an exquisite audiophile CD, Poems Only Dogs Can Hear (2003), in which surreal vignettes were suspended inside a matrix of music. In 2006 she toured across Canada with her fusion trio performing a folk opera called Suitcase Local, which has just been released (2009) as a CD. This spoken-word and music fusion is a spooky retelling of some of Peach’s experiences as a Canadian working as a high-pressure welder in the construction and maintenance of power plants south of the border.
Peach's publications include 10 Flowered Cactus (1996), Love is a Small Town (2001), and contributions in a variety of anthologies and magazines. She is the founder and Artistic Director of the Poetry Gabriola Festival on Gabriola Island, BC, and is currently promoting her new CD, which is available directly from artist, at hilarypeach@yahoo.ca, via regular post (mail order), or through CD Baby, where listeners can also review selected tracks.
The World Poetry Café Radio Show can be heard in the Greater Vancouver area on 102.7 FM, or on the internet, at Vancouver Co-op Radio, www.coopradio.org. For more information about the show, please contact Ariadne Sawyer, at ariadnes@uniserve.com.
Our co-founder and regular co-host of the radio programme, Alejandro Mujica-Olea, is currently reading and travelling in Brazil and Chile. Our continued best wishes to Alejandro on his trip.
