Beyond Books Book Club

Every week Tony Higginson hosts his Beyond Books Book Club, which goes out live on Zoom and Facebook at 7.30 pm (UK) every Monday Evening. People watching the show are able to log on and join in with the discussion.

Author of Rock’n’Roll Unravelled, Derek Shelmerdine is a monthly guest on the show. Each show has particular theme based around the music of the 1950s, ’60s, ’70s and its roots. As well as the recorded music, Some of Tony’s guests perform songs live on the show.

The Book Club has a regular panel of writers, poets and musicians. The discussion is wide ranging with readings, poetry recitals and live performances from the musicians.
