|
The Hidden Cameras described their music "Gay, Church folk-music", with gay meaning happy and jovial of course.

The Hidden Cameras are also known in their native land for their lively and memorable live shows (several members dress in bold and outrageous costumes), they are supporting The Sleepy Jackson around the UK to promote the new single and the album. Those willing to laugh in the face of prejudice and listen to them or go and see them will not be disappointed. David Adair
