C.R. Avery loved last year’s Words Aloud Festival so much, he wants to come back before he heads off to Whitehorse, LA and Europe. This special concert/workshop is Words Aloud’s way of thanking our loyal and fantastic audiences and supporters.

If you’ve seen C.R., you’ll know his high energy dynamic performances are a mix of blues, spoken word and rock and roll. If you haven’t seen him, this is an opportunity not to be missed.

He’s a one-man band, with the rare ability to sing poetic verse while simultaneously beatboxing, pounding the piano and adding wild harmonica like a plot twist. He has been described as Bob Dylan in the body of Iggy Pop, colliding with Little Walter, the Beastie Boys and Allen Ginsberg.
