This will be a very different Salon at which Vincent Gould will introduce his project ‘Abolition Times’, that includes an album about the abolition of slavery. Taking place on three continents it features untold stories of the people who helped to end the African slave trade.

The stories are told through speech and song and Vincent will perform some of his unique songs.

Vincent is a songwriter, poet, actor and performer. He has spoken at the Battle of Ideas festival and the Birmingham Salon. He will be talking and performing his songs at the Battle in October 2023. His performance will be a taster of what to expect at the festival.

Date, Time and Venue: Thursday 19 October at 19.00 in the Brunswick Inn, Derby.

Tickets £3 (plus fee) on Eventbrite.
