A National Poetry Slam Legend, a poet like none other, a human with few comparisons, the (unofficial) Poet Laureate of Hip Hop culture in the rusted Midwest, BILLY TUGGLE has taught workshops, spit poems, warmed hearts, & made a family of friends from one end of this country to the other. He has been featured in the documentary "Louder Than A B*mb" on "All Def Poetry" and too many other places to list. He published his first full length collection "A Tree (Falls In) The Hood" in 2024.
A.S. COOMER is a writer & musician. Books include BIRTH OF A MONSTER, THE FLOCK UNSEEN, MEMORABILIA, THE FETISHISTS, & many others. He runs Lost, Long Gone, Forgotten Records, a “record label” for poetry.
NICHOLAS GRAHAM HALL isn't just a singer-songwriter, he's a storyteller. With a guitar in hand and a well-crafted lyric, he can weave a vivid tale or deliver a powerful message in just a few verses. Nicholas draws inspiration from his own life, tackling relatable themes like self-doubt, love and loss, the political climate, and even the environment. His music is a heartfelt exploration of the human experience. To discover his music just visit your favorite streaming service or visit https://www.nicholasgrahamhall.com
