Decoding Antony Szmierek

Antony Szmierek's world has changed dramatically since his debut. As 'Decoding Birdsong' arrives, he's making peace with success and discovering what comes after the breakthrough.

Speaking about the song, Szmierek comments: "Stockport Council abandoned plans for a Valley of the Kings themed shopping plaza, leaving only an empty pyramid behind. Nobody really knows what the pyramids in Giza are for. What we do know is that we're not here long, and that the impossible is more possible than we think it is, motivationally speaking. That big blue pyramid serves as a reminder that human beings never really change - even if our pyramids are now by the side of motorways and full of office space."
An accompanying video directed by Zac Watson features Szmierek against Stockport's pyramid-shaped abandoned shopping plaza, juxtaposed with scenes from Egypt's pyramids.
Szmierek has also announced a UK and European headline tour. The dates in full read:
OCTOBER 5 Neighbourhood Festival, Manchester 19 SWN Festival, Cardiff
