CHRIS LEO is a writer and musician living in New York City. He is is the author of 4 books. The most notable being White Pigeons on Fifth Planet Press and Feathers Like Leather on Heartworm Press. Chris has also paid his dues in the sticky scene of undergound music in such bands as Van Pelt, The Lapse, and Vague Angels.
RM O’BRIEN was born in Oswego, New York in 1983. He was awarded a BA in Liberal Studies from Purchase College only after he agreed to pay $50 to be registered in a “dummy” class. If he is known at all, it is probably as the principal songwriter and singer for Nuclear Power Pants. To date, O’Brien has self-published a small handful of poetic tracts which he leaves around wherever, and he curates the monthly reading series WORMS in Baltimore, Maryland, where he lives with a man, a woman, and a dog.

Opening.
After using my personal blog to post links to poetic readings and events in and around Philadelphia, I decided to create this page. Please use the search bar to find readings. The archive sub-page will list all the events that I’ve recorded (eventually), and permanent links to other sources of recordings will decorate the sidebar. Please email me if you have questions, comments, or suggestions.
