Eleanor McEvoy will deliver a workshop entitled Song Lyrics, Serious Literature or Throwaway Pop? as part of the third Kilmore Quay Literary Festival, Write By The Sea 2018. The festival will take place in the Co. Wexford fishing village from Saturday, September 29th to Sunday 30th and the full programme is on www.writebythesea.ie
The decision to include Lyric Writing as a subject for a literary festival is believed to have been inspired by the award of a Nobel Prize for Literature to Bob Dylan and Kendrick Lamar winning the Pulitzer Prize for “the vernacular authenticity” of his album DAMN.
