QUEEN of British spoken word Joolz Denby is a multi-talented broadcaster, author, performer and qualified tattoo artist.

The globally recognised star has won countless awards for her work over 25 years and been described as 'an authentic wild card' and 'The UK’s answer to Patti Smith'.

Her latest project sees Denby teaming up with rockers New York Alcoholic Anxiety Attack for gigs featuring her acclaimed spoken work show set to music.

With experience at venues ranging from the House of Commons to the Glastonbury festival, her show at Wolverhampton’s Little Civic on Friday October 10 should be a night to remember.
