Harry Baker

Described by BBC Radio 1 as "Simply put... The greatest performer on earth”, World Poetry Slam Champion Harry Baker's heart and humour has been watched by millions online and allowed him to perform all over the world.

Following on from last year’s 60-date sellout tour, this year he is being more selective and just doing fun poems (and some sad poems) in fun places (and maybe some sad places but hopefully not), ideally near friends he hasn’t seen for a while with his new tour If You're Harry and You Poet, Clap Your Hands.

With his new book now officially an International Bestseller (thank you Ireland), he will be sharing crowd favourites and personal favourites from across all four of his existing collections, as well as brand new material that he hopes will become both crowd and personal favourites in the future.

With poems about death, postcodes and his favourite German wheat beer Schöfferhofer, the maths-loving, TED-talking, German-speaking, battle-rapping, happy-crying, self-bio-writing unashamed human brings his signature playfulness and poignancy that has made him a fan favourite and reached millions of people all over the world.

Hope may well be a thing with feathers –
then again, so were the dinosaurs.
