The Radicant is the new moniker of internationally renowned Ex Anathema frontman Vincent Cavanagh.
Vincent is an innovative composer whose work seamlessly blends music with visual arts, pushing the boundaries of interdisciplinary collaboration. Driven by a passion for experimentation, his work with The Radicant allows him the freedom to explore new media and technologies, fostering a dynamic exchange between art forms.
Inspired by a term used in botany, ‘Radicant describes organisms that create their roots gradually as they advance, allowing species to mobilise, adapt, and grow on any surface. To be radicant means setting one’s roots in motion, staging them in heterogeneous contexts and formats, and exchanging rather than imposing. The Radicant embodies Vincent Cavanagh’s artistic philosophy. A pioneering multimedia project helmed by the ex-Anathema frontman and songwriter, The Radicant reflects his adaptive, multirooted approach to creating contemporary art and music. This year, Vincent will share his first music under The Radicant moniker with a highly anticipated debut EP, merging songcraft and sound design to create a unique blend of hybrid electronica.
