Jackie Montague

“A lovely voice but concerning and controversial lyrics”


Described recently in Outline Magazine as “bawdy, humorous -ding dong-and uncompromising,” Jackie is a spoken word poet, writer and performer based in Suffolk.

After making her debut with Poo Poo Band performing Night Soil For The Soul, Jackie’s association with Hugh Metcalfe was tested with a 7 hour car trip for a Klinker Club in Frome, Somerset. Both survived unscathed and enthusiastic.

Recent performances for Klinker Club have included Harwich Arts Festival and Asylum Studios Bentwaters. Her work has been selected for Ruthin International Arts Festival; Instant Vortex Live Art Happening Colchester Arts Centre and Spill Live Art Festival as a performer and writer. Jackie has been published this year by Earth Island Books in the 10 Poets Anthology.
