About this concert
Babettes Kulturpalats presenterar: The Hidden Cameras (solo) The Hidden Cameras är Joel Gibbs skapelse, en kanadensisk artist och musiker baserad i Berlin. Tidigare har Gibb fyllt scenen med en brokig ensemble av både klassiskt skolade och självlärda musiker. Nu framför han för första gången The Hidden Cameras låtar i ett intimt soloformat. Repertoaren sträcker sig över en rad genrer – folk, rock, ballader, pop och spirituals – där han både utforskar bandets katalog och debuterar med nyproducerade dans- och elektroniskt inriktade låtar. Med gitarren som grund och slagverk som komplement har Gibb nyligen avslutat en framgångsrik Europaturné tillsammans med Owen Pallett, en tidig medlem i The Hidden Cameras. Rough Trade Records har nyligen återutgivit det kritikerrosade debutalbumet The Smell of Our Own för att fira dess 20-årsjubileum. Parallellt har Gibb utvecklat nytt elektroniskt material i München tillsammans med trummisen och samarbetspartnern Nicolas Sierig (Joasihno), med stråkarrangemang av Pallett. Det kommande The Hidden Cameras-albumet släpps under våren 2025. I grunden en sångare och låtskrivare, är Gibb en musikalisk kameleont som rör sig obehindrat mellan genrer och uttryck. Genom åren har han samarbetat med artister som Mocky, Feist, Patrick Wolf, Chilly Gonzales, Ron Sexsmith, Pet Shop Boys, Rufus Wainwright och R.E.M. I sin nuvarande föreställning bjuder Gibb publiken på en nära och avskalad tolkning av sitt lysande låtmaterial – det är en musikalisk upplevelse fylld av skönhet, djup och experimentlusta. Det nya albumet släpps den 9 maj och bara några dagar efter har du chansen att höra honom live i Linköping! När vi fick veta att Joel Gibb har en förkärlek att spela i gamla kyrkor ville vi locka hit honom för en unik spelning på Babettes i det som en gång var en gammal Baptistkyrka. Det kommer bli magiskt! Insläpp till stora scenen från 20.30. På scen: 21.00. Babettes kafferi är öppet före och efter eventet för mat och dryck. Vi följer Polismyndighetens nya beslut om väskförbud på evenemang. Små väskor (mindre än ett A4-papper) OK, men kommer att genomsökas av entrévärd. Evenemanget arrangeras av Babettes kulturförening med stöd från Linköpings kultur och fritid.

The Hidden Cameras Biography
The Hidden Cameras are a Canadian indie pop band.
Fronted by singer-songwriter Joel Gibb, the band consists of a varying roster of musicians who play what Gibb describes as "gay church folk music". They could also be considered an anti-folk band, as is often associated with musicians on the Rough Trade label. Their live performances are elaborate, high energy shows, featuring go-go dancers in balaclavas, a choir and string section. Large banners, created by Joel and often featured on the band's record covers, are hung from the ceiling and lyrics are projected onto the wall. Yellow streamers thrown into the audience accompany the song, Golden Streams and band members lead the audience in special made-up dances for particular songs.
The band's first album, Ecce Homo, was released independently in 2001 on EvilEvil. It was after this first release that Gibb assembled a band and they began to perform in venues varying from churches to porn theatres to parks.
Their 2003 album, The Smell of Our Own was released through the popular Rough Trade imprint in the UK. In 2004, they released their third album, Mississauga Goddam, also on Rough Trade. Both albums were also released on the independent label EvilEvil in Canada. Mississauga Goddam was followed by The Arms of His Ill EP, released by California label Absolutely Kosher Records, with jacket art specially created by Paul P. and G.B. Jones and containing 4-track demo versions of some of the songs from the preceding album.
In August/September 2006 they released their fourth full-length album Awoo.
