ATP team up with Songkick to bring bands to London

-

ATP have announced they’ve linked up with Songkick’s new Detour venture to help fund rare shows in London.

After Conor Oberst’s Desaparecidos were announced to play the project’s first show, promoters and festival giants ATP have struck up a partnership to help out.

The press release says:

“Today we’re also announcing a very special new curator. Ever since we started Songkick, one of the brands we’ve most admired is ATP. Our team members have shared cabins at Camber Sands and been to countless amazing ATP shows, from Death Grips to MBV. ATP are a truly fan and artist centric company that inspire our belief that by connecting true artists and fans we can be part of building a better concert industry for everyone. Seriously, what independent promoter gets a music documentary made about them?”

We at ATP are really excited about Detour London as a way to bring over more new acts so we have joined as one of their curators.”

ATP aim to bring the following bands to London:

Superchunk
Boredoms
I Break Horses
Merchandise
Colin Stetson
Merzbow
Goat
Divine Fits
Widowspeak

Detour is currently invite-only, but you can try to get one here by quoting the code H9CXDKJH.
