“We want to create an inclusive space to bring musicians and poets together under one roof. Tonic promotes audience/artist discussion through Q&As and is fully accessible with no steps throughout the venue and adjustable house lights to suit those with sensitive vision. We also operate a BYOB policy to give punters and performers the freedom to drink at their own budget.”

Beth Calverley aka Poetry Machine will also be on-hand to write “fresh poems for punctual punters on her beautiful typewriter”
