Alexander Smith is a Seattle community poet who has been a participant and featured reader at many open-mic venues throughout the Pacific Northwest for years. Alex has developed a harmonica/poetry style to add to his spoken word, which is typically free verse. Originally from SoCal, Alex has lived in Seattle since 1989 and is the father of three grown children who “all put their clothes on by themselves and have jobs” he says proudly.

Jeremy Robkin is a member of the Duvall Improv Social Club and the Duvall Poetry Open Mic community. He fuses his love of improv and poetry to create poems on the fly based on single words provided by the audience. Sometimes he puts pen to paper to scribe something more permanent. In truth, everything is ephemeral when looked at through a long enough lens.
