The Hidden Cameras are about to awoo fans this fall and winter with a new album and gigantic tour. Yes, the loosely organized Canadian collective (soon the words "Canadian" and "collective" will become interchangeable in music writing) led by singer/songwriter Joel Gibb is packing up their glockenspiels, violins, and sparklers and setting out in support of Awoo, due out September 19 on Arts and Crafts.

The tour began last weekend in Canada, jumps down to NYC for one show at the Knitting Factory last week, then goes transatlantic for a month and a half of European dates. In mid-November, Gibb and co. will travel west across the U.S. of A. (and back) to round out their epic journey, ending at the Grog Shop in Ohio in mid-December. (They'll be throwing back a lot of grog by that point.)
