The Bard of Salford, Dr John Cooper Clarke is back with more razor-sharp poetry and extracts from his new autobiography 'I Wanna Be Yours.'
Due to high demand a new Cardiff date has been added at St David’s Hall on Friday 10th June 2022, with tickets going on general sale on Friday 2nd July at 10:00am.John Cooper Clarke, also known as the Bard of Salford, is a phenomenon: Poet Laureate of Punk, rock star, fashion icon, TV and radio presenter, social and cultural commentator - he’s one of Britain’s most beloved and influential writers and performers.
John’s new memoir ‘I Wanna Be Yours’, was released in the UK on 15th October 2021 by Picador. The book explores his extraordinary life, filled with remarkable personalities: from Nico to Chuck Berry; Bernard Manning to Linton Kwesi Johnson; Elvis Costello to Gregory Corso; Mark E. Smith to Gil Scott Heron and Joe Strummer and on to more recent fans and collaborators like Alex Turner, Plan B and Guy Garvey. Interspersed with stories of his rock and roll and performing career, John also reveals his mind-boggling encyclopaedic take on popular culture over the centuries: from Baudelaire and Edgar Allan Poe, to Pop Art, pop music, the movies, fashion, football and show business - with more than a few laughs along the way.
John’s new show is a breath-taking showcase of poetry and spoken work, sharing stories from hisincredible life and hugely successful career. JCC will take you on an incredible journey with pieces from the new book as well as his usual musings, off the wall chat, riffs, gags and wicked humour.
