A Frome Festival 25 for 25 Fundraiser – find out more: fromefestival.co.uk/25years/
New and Selected Potatoes is the spud-in-cheek title of the 2012 Bloodaxe compilation of 38 years work, which is here added to by further newness, focusing on the author’s educational work and drawings. Mandolin accompaniment has been retained, alongside a train whistle from Didcot Railway Centre.
A long-time favourite of Frome Festival, John Hegley has for many years been involved in the creation of songs, poems, books, radio programmes, festival performances, and cardboard animals. A former BBC online poet and Poet in Residence at Keats House, he was nominated for the Edinburgh Fringe Perrier Award and described in The Independent as “awesomely mundane.”
