Since coming to Cornwall in 1965 BOB DEVEREUX has been a driving force in the promotion of live music, performance poetry, storytelling and theatre in the South West. The tour de force behind many festivals, he has hosted 'Frug' nights at the Arts Club since the 1980s and the  'Music and Poetry in the Square' sessions throughout the St Ives September and Literary festivals, in addition to his time as Director of the Salthouse Gallery, Norway Square.
