Hidden Orchestra - Footsteps
(Free download single) Tru Thoughts, 2010-08-16
Footsteps is the first single from Hidden Orchestra's upcoming debut album Night Walks, and will be released on 16th August as a free digital download from Bandcamp, where fans will also be able to stream three other tracks from the album over a month ahead of its release. A laid back song with jazzy drums bouncing off a hip hop beat, and one of the only tracks on the album with vocals, Footsteps employs the smoky tones of singer Julia Biel, and the atmospheric, almost human trumpet sound of Phil Cardwell. The driving force behind the Edinburgh-based Hidden Orchestra is the acute artistic vision of Joe Acheson, a classically trained multi-instrumentalist, composer, music producer, sound designer and producer/presenter of radio documentaries for stations including BBC Radio 3 and 1Xtra. Formerly known as the Joe Acheson Quartet, Hidden Orchestra have long been championed by BBC Radio 1's Introducing in Scotland and they enjoy an enviable reputation for their stunning live gigs.
