Antony Szmierek
“Armed with spoken word songs that celebrate the beauty in the everyday, the Manchester poet is ticking off career milestones seemingly by the minute” - DIY (Class of 2024) “tales of love, hope and ambition told paired with lightly psychedelic guitar riffs and UK garage kick patterns” - NME (Radar Breakout) “His direct, spoken word tone makes this pondering feel blissfully optimistic, a source of reassurance in hard times” - Time Out (Artists to Watch 2024) “he is being lauded as one of the leading lights of a new generation of truly captivating British songwriters” - The Line of Best Fit “Literate and worldly wise, he also packs a punch - there’s romance, there, but also grit” - Clash In only a short while, Antony Szmierek has captivated audiences with his thoughtful lyricism across rap, spoken word, and dance music. Hailed one of BBC 6 Music’s Artists of the Year for 2023, in the past eighteen months he made his television debut on Later… With Jools Holland, performed an entirely sold-out first ever UK headline tour and released two acclaimed EP’s ‘Poems To Dance To’ and ‘Seasoning’. He has had a string of A List singles on BBC 6 Music, a Maida Vale session for Future Artists on BBC Radio 1 and daytime support at the station as their Introducing Track of the Week. Szmierek says the ultimate mission of his music is to let others know that this is all possible.
