“Lovely, lyrical joy…classy work” The Guardian
Sally Jenkinson
Northern love/loss/laughter poems that sound like they should be written in empty chip paper and thrown at you from the top of the night bus. Published by super-hip Burning Eye she's a festival favourite (Glastonbury, Secret Garden, Womad) and international touring wonderbrain.
“Sally's poems are like Strongbow for the soul” - Holly Blackwell, The Lovely Eggs.
