Smokin Word Poetics is the brainchild of frontman Kapila McNary, although very much a completely collaborative effort powered by those who help make it possible. Combining Musicians from various genre’s with Spoken Word, it is a cocreative combustion unlike any other. We do gigs wherever the opportunity presents itself and bring an eclectic mix of music and poetry to the issues of the day and the experience of the human condition in all it’s movements and dichotomies. If you fear the honest reflection of the world in which we live and what it means to be human, don’t book us and avoid us like the plague. Otherwise, if you like your music and poetry soulful and unadulterated . . . see us, book us, support us, because we love you, and it’s all about us getting real, together. And, also educating, entertaining, and supporting each other in this momentous time. Please come check us out at our next show, we will keep you updated on them as they happen, so please keep checkin in. We will illuminate, inspire, and move your soul in ways great and small and thank you for it.
Hey Kapila, check out these pictures from Bobo’s.
Our show at the Bo Bo Gallery on the 13th was a blazing success!
Thanks so much to all of the amazing Poets and Musicians who gave the very best of themselves. Debonaire, Griffin, Stevie B, Jason, Adam, Derrick, Douglas, Debonaire’s friend the banjo player and his friends, Raven the Revelator, and TO ALL THE AUDIENCE MEMBERS WHO GRACED US WITH THEIR PRESENCE, SUPPORT, AND APPRECIATION! Even for a Poet, there are no words to express such Gratitude. Stay tuned for the next grand event. Thanks so much to Brad, Elizabeth, Jacob, for their support in giving us such a great venue to unfold and explode in.
With Love, and so much Gratitude it leaves you breathless.
Kapila
