About Us

I am JC Cowan CEO and Founder of Touch One Productions and when I started this company I realized how we were affecting people with our words and we came up "feel the poetry" 

Our Mission is to not only have you hear our Poetry but to Feel The Poetry!

The organization was started unofficially in 2001 by JC,BG,BLUZ,QUENTIN and MAZE.

We pulled together to bring a consistent poetry scene to Charlotte. 200

Terry Creech aka The Wanderer left and went on the poetry slam circuit and brought it back to our city building Charlottes first slam team in 2004. For more info on the Slam Competition go to slamcharlotte.com

 We started our own spot getting from under other promoters at the Deli on Nationsford rd and began Feel Good Sundays with Philip Glover and maintained that for a year. We then moved to the Liquid Lounge on Mondays and maintained that for a year also in which time I was offered a chance to host a radio show on the Breakfast brothers morning show on Power 98.  Touch One Productions continued to build adding new poets on and doing small parties. In 2004we all migrated to the NODA area and began doing poetry with our band at The Brick Top lounge and with the help of Cantrell Miller we moved across the street to The Wine Up in Dec 2004 and began Touch One Thursdays and  Cantrell helped get the Company started in 2005 and we have been going strong every since.

Touch One Productions is a family and we are in Charlotte to bring change to our city. So Please support us in this effort to educate our youth through positive messages and teaching.

God has brought us this far  together and we all know that it wasn't to fail! 

Thank you Jesus!!!!!

Thank you for your support!
