Eirean Bradley, Denver transplant and outgoing Portland (Oregon) SlamMaster.

Eirean Bradley is an eight-time National Poetry Slam competitor who believes that poetry should be done like everything else: loudly and unapologetically! As such, he has performed his poetry in all of the lower forty-eight states and initiated the famous crowd-response head-to-head poetry slams in Portland, Oregon. He is the author of two full length books of poetry: the I in team and the little big book of go kill yourself on University of Hell Press.

Tonight’s show will also feature a spotlight open mic appearance from another Eirean’s pressmate, Leah Noble Davidson. Trained originally as a storyteller, Leah has been writing and performing poetry for well over a decade. Her debut book, Poetic Scientifica is “at once urgent and gorgeous and brutal.”

This show in our weekly Wednesday series takes place at the Cantab Lounge, 738 Massachusetts Ave. in Cambridge. Doors for the show open at 7:15. The open mic begins at 8:00 and the feature performs at approximately 10:00. An open slam in the 8×8 series will follow. The show is 18+ (ID required) and the cover charge is $3.
