LAFAYETTE, L.a. — One local poetry slam team is heading to Knoxville, Tennessee to compete in the 2023 Southern Fried Regional Poetry Slam — but they need more members on their roster.
The team in question is the Lafayette-based group "Lyrically Inclined."
The group is in part made up of the founder and Alex "Poetic Soul" Johnson, "Ascension the Artist", featuring music by Anthony B. Daniels.
A final round of auditions is being held Tuesday at Cites Des Arts in Lafayette for the last 5 available spots on Lyrically Inclined's team. The sign-ups start at 6:00 pm while the auditions start at 7:00 pm.
The top five poets who survive three rounds of intense slam poetry will make the team and join them in representing Acadiana at Southern Fried.
