Just announced! @antonyszmierek will perform his first headline show in Blackpool this August joined by @circemusic
What started as poetry performances on small stages led to skillfully crafted melodies to accompany his words, and from there more songs. Fast forward to today, and Antony is an A List artist on BBC 6 Music, performed live in session at Maida Vale for BBC Radio 1, played to huge crowds at festivals including Glastonbury, Reading & Leeds, Bluedot, Truck,
Lost Village and Down The Rabbit Hole and will be performing on the coveted Later… With Jools Holland on October 7th - a rite of passage reserved for only the most deserving of artists.
Szmierek wrote words before songs. Novels at first, of which he’s published two - but he realised what he wanted people to take from them was smaller quotes, or soundbites. So, gradually his writing became shorter and shorter, boiling down into short stories. With his
art, Szmierek joins a host of contemporaries whose skill for crafting melodies and lyrics translate beautifully into both songs and written works.
