Steve Subrizi first visited the Cantab in 2004 on a field trip with an Emerson College writing group. From then until he wandered away from greater Boston in 2010, he was a devoted regular. At the Cantab’s downstairs bar on Wednesday night, a “Steve Subrizi” is a Maker’s Mark and tonic with a lime wedge.

Steve is the author of the e-chapbook Newly Wild Hedgehog (NAP, 2011). His work has appeared in such other places as The Scrambler, Muzzle, NOÖ Journal, and Monday Night, and he has performed his poetry at dive bars and lecture halls across America alone, along with tour-mate and confidant Sam Teitel, and as a member of Emerson’s premier slam team, The Gringo Choir, which also included Carrie Rudzinski, Maxwell Kessler, and Carlos Williams.

He plays in a band called The Crazy Exes from Hell. For further reading and contact information, visit www.stevesubrizi.com.
