Readings and Performances Series - Prague, Czech Republic

Monday, July 5th, 8pm:
Jorn Ake & Citizen One

Special evening featuring poetry and music...

Jorn Ake

Jorn Ake’s first book of poetry, Asleep in the Lightning Fields, won the 2001 X.J. Kennedy award and was published by Texas Review Press in September 2002. His second book, The Circle Line, will be published by Red Hen Press in 2005. In 2003, he won an Arizona Commission on the Arts Creative Writing Fellowship to support continued work on a third manuscript full of historical conflict, subversive photography and symbolic ornithology. He currently resides temporarily in Prague, Czech Republic.

Citizen One (US), singer, songwriter and globetrotter

CitiZen One is a Singer, Songwriter, and Storyteller. Start tossing around words like Performance Artist, Voicetrumentalist, and One-man-band and you will see the dilemma of categorizing this Post-Post-Modern Troubadour. The New York Press writes, "You’ll find whatever you’ve come looking for!" not to mention, "soulful voice and cool guitar playing." Citizen One’s haunting lyrics, vocal instrumentation, and dynamic performances have drawn praise from avid fans who liken him to such artists as Ben Harper, Martin Sexton, Bobby McFerrin, José Feliciano, James Taylor, and Louis Armstrong.
