Paul Smith hosted another fantastic evening at Blacheath Library, Rowley Regis last night on the 28th March 2015. The event started at 6pm and carried on through until 10.30pm and saw a whole lot of different acts from musicians, poets, comedians and story tellers. One such musician Niven smith whom played three songs with Tony Smith, (no relation to either Paul nor Niven). said 'it was a good night with good acts and I cannot think of anything bad to say about it.' Paul (Pictured left) enjoyed the night very much and was very busy making sure that everyone who wanted to perform got a slot. Angela L.Garratt, poet, author and Honorary Ambassador of the Walsall Poetry Society said that it is not only a place to come if you love your art, but it is a great place to meet other artists, mingle and show this small part of the Black Country what you do.' Other artist included Martin Hubbard, a well known and much admired singer/songwriter. Scar Belly Blues, a local band that includes Den Payne, guitar and vocals, Dave Spittle, Drums, Peter Hacket lead guitar and Chris Johnston, Base. Niven Smith (left) and Tony Smith (no relation), playing 'Say to You'. A song written by Niven many years ago. He has since gone on to write many many, more songs including that of the very well known 'The Beach', 'A Walk in the Park and the 'The Traveller'. Though he is now a music producer, he still writes songs with many other well known artists.
