Musically, he released an L.P and Single with UK based 80s avant garde/experimental band, 4,000,000 Telephones, with a tour in Germany, previously gaining interest from national UK press and making the playlist of radio 1’s John Peel show.

Following on from a successful launch of his debut book ‘Sustain Your Ability to Satisfy’, Wasps Vs Humans is now releasing a digital eBook version. This can be downloaded from Apple iTunes and Amazon, as well as on all eBook reader formats.

“WHAT do you get when you mix up Ian Curtis, Dylan Thomas and John Cooper Clarke? One answer would be a very strange individual but he is also a magnetic live performer!” (Cork Independent).

“Plover’s thoughts of life, the world and the celebrity obsessed culture we live in are honest, observant and true” (Hot Press magazine)

“Wasps Vs Humans injects a new sting into Poetry” (Cork News)

“In normal conversation, Plover’s sentences bubble up with a child like energy. In performance mode, he hunches like a boxer and bobs and weaves with the rhythms.” (Cork Evening Echo)
