Britain's What's On Event Guide
Antidote: January
Antidote
The Victoria Theatre's unique and experimental music programme
Antidote is for audiences that like to challenge their understanding of live music and features some of the UK’s finest performers. Each event is unique, and guest curated by Andy Abbott (ADRA Promotions).
Andy Abbott is an artist, musician and writer who has released records on independent labels and toured across the UK, Europe and Asia, performing in a range of venues, including London’s Alexandra Palace and Leeds and Reading festivals. As Fellow in Music at University of Bradford, he produced the M@BU programme of pioneering grassroots music, and Bradford Threadfest and Recon festivals – both in The Guardian’s top-ten metropolitan festivals.
About guest curating Antidote Andy says:
‘When I first heard about Antidote, I was amazed that a municipal theatre was investing in experimental music. I’ve been fortunate to experience the fantastic events as a punter and performer, and I look forward to continuing to bring new music and collaborations to Halifax. It’s a unique opportunity to shine a light on the experimental grassroots music scene and I hope audiences will enjoy coming along for the next part of the ride.’
Details of the programme will be forthcoming on the Victoria Theatre website and social media. Follow Andy on Twitter or Instagram @zadanzig or at www.andyabbott.co.uk
