The Hidden Cameras

Three years after their insistently rhythmic last album, Awoo, the Hidden Cameras return with a record which cradles together familiar sounds and themes with a new depth and darkness which will catch some off-guard.

Early reviews are raving about this "mature" sound, with apparitions of misty eastern strings and sadistic brass punches. But they've not abandoned that profound gift they have for simple melodies, with recent single, In the Na, being an ecstatic lesson in economy. And never one to mince his lyrics, Joel Gibb still spins lines that would have outraged Dail Mail readers jabbing pen to paper. Currently on tour in North America, Gibb will directing his Cameras around Europe in March 2010.

ORIGIN:ORPHAN is released in UK 2 Nov with a tour planned for March 2010
