The Ocean and a Drop – Words and Music for our World - a monthly evening to celebrate and mourn our connection and disconnection through music, word and voice.
**When: 7.30-9.30pm Monday 16 February**
**Where: The Waverley Bar, 3-5 St Mary's Street, Edinburgh EH1 1TA**
The featured artist will be heart warming singer-songwriter Caro Bridges, followed by a welcome to all to share poems, stories, songs or music on the local or global situation. We’ll aim to create an open stage with a world and political focus reflecting on current or historical events, for us to add a drop in the ocean. If you're interested in taking part or supporting this initiative in any other way, please let us know.
**About this month's guest**
Known for her sweet, dark and earthy voice with agile guitar skills, Caro Bridges has been percolating in Edinburgh for over a decade. A warm and versatile performer, she draws on a wide range of musical influences to craft anthropologically useful songs about the never-ending conversation between nature, technology, and humanity.
The event is free but there will be a collection for The Welcoming, a charity who support asylum seekers, refugees, and migrants in Edinburgh.
Here are the dates for your diary for the sessions up until June:
9th of March, 13th of April, 11th of May and 8th of June.
Please share this with others who you think will be interested. We look forward to seeing you there if you can make it.
