performance poetry

Murray Lachlan Young is a British performance poet whose humorous work enjoyed a spectacular but brief vogue during the mid-1990s. He is best known for having signed to EMI amid a blaze of publicity in 1996, reportedly receiving a £1 million advance (though this sum, despite being widely reported, is almost certainly exaggerated). He released one album, Vice And Verse. He is now living and working in west Cornwall.
