Poets Corner

Poets Corner are a young North Lincolnshire outfit bringing a gloriously dishevelled streak to the new wave of guitar bands emerging around Sheffield and its surrounding towns.

Arriving with debut single Over and Over in 2024, they operate somewhere around the borders of indie, punk and alternative rock, but live there’s considerably more going on: keyboards collide with distorted guitars, glam swagger and bar-room rock ’n’ roll while everything constantly threatens to come apart at the seams.

Increasingly visible on Sheffield’s grassroots circuit, Poets Corner have discovered something considerably more useful than perfection: personality.

Think punk distortion, glam stomp and a battered piano pushed down the stairs.
