Not to be confused for the championship-winning bicycle racer from Canada with the same name, Brant Lyon has for more than a decade tirelessly pedaled his words and music throughout New York City's poetry circuit and beyond. He has performed at Carnegie Hall, Bowery Poetry Club, The Cornelia Street Café, Galapagos Art Space, and elsewhere in New York City; in the Catskills; as well as in his native New Jersey. Brant currently curates Hydrogen Jukebox, a "jazzoetry" series where the recombinant DNA of word, rhythm, and tone metamorphoses in improvisatory chrysalises and re-emerges as musical logo-imagoes. His poetry has most recently appeared in print and online in "Rattle," "Big City Lit," "Lullwater Review," "The Long Islander," "Medicinal Purposes," "Rogue Scholars Collective" and one cheesy anthology best forgotten. Once a clinical social worker and an administrator of juvenile justice, for now, he leaves it to others to work out their problems, as he frequently bounds out the door for adventure in far-flung places. For the past eight years he has tracked the digital revolution in Egypt, where he and his partner have just opened an internet café in a neighborhood of greater Cairo so obscure only a homing pigeon could find. He otherwise resides in Brooklyn, New York.
