The lost art of wondering

Vindolanda-demo

This is the preview track from Hidden Giants' debut EP. The first of 3 EP's to be released over the next 12 months. These will then be compiled into an almanac, charting the journey of The Hidden Giants.
'The lost art of wondering' represents the modern paradox of having a wealth of information at everyone's finger tips, how this actually stops us from developing new ideas and how, when you really need answers to deeper problems, they aren't there. No one has them; we're alone. It's about needing help and fighting your way through the noise to find it, about having the strength to do it alone; to explore and understand, to daydream and to wonder.

Lost Art Of Wondering

The songs on Foundations focus on articulating the paradoxes, dichotomies and tensions within human beings.      Jonathan Moss’ lyrics are drawn from his fascination with the complexity of the individual. Nothing transcends experience and the more we experience, the more we learn and the more we learn, the more content we can become in recognising how little we know. It is pretending we know it all, to be seen as powerful, that will destroy us (Frontierland). The paradox however, is that as people become powerful through those means, they can then exploit and control people (Dionne Five). And they keep doing it, and we keep letting them (Vindolanda)!

Hidden Giants blend Alt. Country and U.K. Indie. They fuse plaintive melodies and powerful harmonies with electric guitars, resonant piano, powered by strong rhythmic bass and drums. They tell narratives of hope, loss, courage and love. The song writing explores historic figures, structures and experiences which communicate contemporary issues and concerns, which have both personal and universal resonance. Their sound is original: a rich bi-vocal led approach which crosses many influences and decades. 
They formed in 2015 and after a few line-up changes, released a home-produced debut EP, ‘Flickering Bulbs’. Returning as a 5-piece in 2020, with a new bassist and singer-keys player brings a full and heavier approach to alt-country, drawing on a wide range of influences from The Cure to Wilco; from Aimee Mann to Black Box Recorder; from Lana Del Ray to Suede; from Cat Power to The Auteurs; from Phoebe Bridges to The Smashing Pumpkins; from Marika Hackman to The Smiths; from The National to Interpol. Their sound is melodic, dulcet, dark, intense, angry but also gentle.
