The Hidden Cameras have added a bunch of dates to their fall tour schedule - most of these are in the Western US and Western Canada. They also announced today that Gentleman Reg (no stranger to the Hidden Cameras) will be opening for them (and no doubt joining them for some songs as well.)

The Hidden Cameras are about to kick off a fall tour in support of the new album Origin: Orphan (due Sept. 22).

A tour diary; charting their movements, emotions and thoughts throughout their brief jaunt around England. At least that was the plan. Due to unforeseen planning problems and hideous levels of alcohol consumption a Plan B of a review/introduction/biography/interview is drawn up, and Drownedinsound finally catches up with members of the now-worldwide collective, themselves a little worse for wear~~
Albums are often proclaimed as a trip, but so often just spin their wheels. The Hidden Cameras succeed in taking you on a journey. Go with them.“Forget what you know / Leave your home” intones Joel Gibb on opening number, “Ratify the New”, and indeed it feels just like that. The Hidden Cameras know all about dynamics - whether over the course of a song or a full album, their ability to eb
Photograph by Ama Chana One may note the slight irony of an LGBT fundraiser taking place in a place of Christian worship, but after witnessing The Hidden Cameras' revelatory show at St. Leonard's Church, Shoreditch one couldn't help be struck how fitting a venue it was. Despite their name, which to this reviewer evokes images of gloomy Interpol-esque miserabilia, Joel Gibb's "gay church folk c...

I was thinking that it would be amazing to have the Hidden Cameras do a film soundtrack and was just talking to my husband the other day about this somewhat random thought. I pictured something like a retro-ish Royal Tenenbaums/Rushmore-feeling film with some runnning through the streets after a lost true-love type scenes... and thought few viewers would even catch the subversive (and hilariou...
