Antony Szmierek

‘Manchester-based talent has proved his worth, his emotive word play both revealing and challenging in equal measure.’ – Clash Mag

Antony Szmierek is a spoken word and indie hip-hop artist making unique moves by blending his poetic, often introspective lyricism with undeniably smooth riffs and nostalgic beats. Hailed by Lauren Laverne as “the best thing I’ve heard all year” and described as “Mike Skinner spliced with Simon Armitage” – his track ‘The Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Fallacy’ spent 4 weeks on the 6 Music B-list, as well as being featured on Jack Saunders’ ‘Future Artists’ show on Radio 1. The same track also bagged the high score on Steve Lamacq’s legendary Round Table. Support continues to pour in from the likes of Craig Charles, Steve Lamacq, Nemone, Mary Anne Hobbs and Chris Hawkins.

With an appearance on the legendary Later… with Jools Holland show and being named as one of 6Music’s Artists of the Year. 2024 is set to be a big year!
