Buddy Wakefield - Poetic Wisdom, Serendipity, and Learning From Your Narrative

I’ve followed Buddy’s work for a while now, and it was great to finally connect with him! This interview is full of incredible stories and is equal parts humorous, poignant, and uplifting. We cover a lot, including what it was like growing up gay in Texas, how that’s shaped his life and work, and finding the point of connection in everything.

Buddy Wakefield is a three-time world champion spoken word artist, signed with Sage Francis’ Strange Famous Records as well as Ani DiFranco’s Righteous Babe Records. He’s also the inaugural author released on Write Bloody Publishing, and the most toured performance poet in history. Buddy is the founder of Awful Good Writers, and the producer and host of the Heavy Hitters Festival 2020, a summer-long series of online shows and workshops featuring thirty of the most beloved performance poets alive. He’s performed around the world in over 2000 venues internationally from The Great Lawn of Central Park, Zimbabwe’s Shoko Festival and Scotland’s Oran Mor to San Quentin State Penitentiary, House of Blues New Orleans and The Basement in Sydney, Australia. His most recent book of prose and poetry is titled A Choir of Honest Killers.
