“Perhaps the only garage-rock band in the world with a Pulitzer Prize-winning poet as a member.”
— The New Yorker, November 2006
When: Monday, August 4, 9 p.m.
Where: The Barn, Bread Loaf Mountain Campus, Ripton, Vt.
Paul Muldoon—celebrated poet, poetry editor at The New Yorker, and Princeton professor—teaches poetry at the Bread Loaf School of English by day, but by night he is a member of Rackett, the “three-car garage band” he founded in 2004 with fellow Princeton English professor (and also a sometime Bread Loaf faculty member) Nigel Smith.
Joining the band for Monday night’s performance will be guitarist Chris Hutchison (also a member of the Bread Loaf Acting Ensemble, currently making us roar with laughter as Sir Andrew Aguecheek in the Bread Loaf production of Twelfth Night), and Bread Loaf student Missy Heselton.
