The Hidden Cameras is the brainchild of Joel Gibb, a Canadian Berlin-based artist and musician. In previous years Gibb has filled out the stage with a band of both classical and self-taught musicians. For the first time, however, he plays the songs of the Hidden Cameras in an intimate solo setting. Gibb will be performing a set of distinctly different songs including folk, rock, ballad, pop and spirituals; surveying the Cameras oeuvre and debuting newly produced dance/electronic-oriented songs. Playing guitar with simultaneous percussive elements, he recently came off of a successful co-headlining tour with Owen Pallett throughout Europe with Pallett (an early Cameras member) singing and performing alongside Gibb playing violin, guitar and loop station. Rough Trade Records has recently reissued the critically acclaimed debut record, The Smell of Our Own, for its 20th anniversary. Gibb has been developing new electronic material in Munich recently with drummer and collaborator Nicolas Sierig (Joasihno), with string arrangements by Pallett. This forthcoming Cameras record is due in 2024 and will be preceded by a series of 12” singles. At his roots a singer and songwriter, Gibb is a brilliant chameleon of music, experimenting in almost every genre and performance style, collaborating in the past with artists including Mocky, Feist, Patrick Wolf, Chilly Gonzales, Ron Sexsmith, Pet Shop Boys, Rufus Wainwright and R.E.M. With Gibb’s current show, an audience will be treated to an intimate portrayal of Gibb’s illustrious collection of beautiful songs and interpretations.
