about

With Craigus McVegas setting the mood with his bluesy guitar and April Lee Fields reading from her novel 'A Version of You,' prepare to be taken upon an epic journey across continents; from small-town America to hippy communes deep in the Australian Outback, from the linoleum suburbs of April's hometown in the UK, to overgrown jungle temples deep in the heart of Asia.
April’s story-telling performances are set against a melodious guitar that will often drift into an assortment of songs that have been carefully paired with the reading. April’s vivid descriptions of both the exotic and the mundane are entwined with a soulful observation that will transport the listener into a world of pure literary and melodic magic.

lyrics

French Toast
(excerpt from 'A Version of You.'

When I think of flying, I think of white clouds that are impregnated with an air of anthropomorphism, their lining lightly swelling into the shapes of celestial creatures as I glide by weightlessly.
When the thought of flight passes through my imagination, I then visit that special place in my dreams where anything is possible and a cool wind whips across my face affectionately; the rush of a tenacious breeze grasps the soft of my feathers and then pushes my plumes up towards the divinity of the sun without any fear of height. I see Peter Pan gliding through the sky with green tights, endless fun, and a white cloud moustache resting above his unaged upper lip… I see heaven and all of its ethereal inhabitants. I imagine myself close enough to brush past a myriad of wishing stars and feel their golden dust in between my hungry fingertips. I see ceremonial fairies bathing their wings in the pure blood of a rebirthed sunset and, to me, ultimately, flying conjures up thoughts of absolute and uninterrupted freedom.
