Daemond Arrindell

Daemond Arrindell is the Slam Master of Seattle and producer of the longest running weekly show in Seattle - the Seattle Poetry Slam. Daemond is a 5-time coach of the Seattle National Poetry Slam Team, currently ranked 6th in the nation.

He is a workshop facilitator, community organizer, advocate and poet - and holds strong to the belief that poetry is a grand tree with a vast array of branches that all contribute to the complexity of the art form. And it is the challenge of the artist to continue to push him/herself to grow within it. Daemond's love for the craft of poetry and the art of spoken word and their ability to alter the emotional state of a listener knows no bounds.
