Johnny Coley Lobby Art Records event
Friday, August 7th 7:30pm - 10:00pm
🔹🌀🔹🌀🔹🌀🔹🌀🔹🌀🔹
Lobby Art Editions presents a special release event for Where the Smoke Goes and As I Slip into the Sky, the final works from the late, q***r Birmingham, AL poet, Johnny Coley.

Far Out Magazine says of Johnny,
"Writing poetry and conjuring improvisational pieces for over 50 years, Alabama artist Johnny Coley has explored the American South’s psychogeography with a deeply surrealist authority. Armed with a lyrical gift for narrative hand-holding to guide the listener through his skewed musings on US heritage, everyday Birmingham eccentricity, and the warped edges of reality, Coley wraps his work in an inviting warmth which points to absurdity while ensuring your stay in his off-kilter world is a hospitable one."

Readings of Johnny's poems by Philadelphia based poets Vasiliki, Jacob Brunner, Frances Ulbricht, and Nazareth Bowman in addition to listening session of selections from the two albums.
