Of the most crucial factors in attaining success is carrying yourself as though you’ve already conquered the world, something which Hidden Charms are no strangers to doing. With a brash, commanding sound which takes influence from several different periods in Britain’s rich rock ‘n’ roll heritage, the London based four piece have received endorsement from sources such as Zane Lowe, XFM and Liam Gallagher’s Pretty Green. Set to hit the road this month alongside YAK, the band have unveiled the video for the swaggering ‘Dreaming Of Another Girl’. Kicking off with a understated yet incredibly catchy riff that Ray Davies would be proud of, ‘Dreaming Of Another Girl’ is a torrid affair which plays to the band’s ability to hark back to a bygone era and drag it into uncharted waters. Opting for subtlety over bombast until the track’s midway point when a barrage of squalling guitars soon make their presence felt, the track sees the band exercise restraint in order to make its eventual surge of adrenaline all the more captivating. A grand effort which borrows heartily from 1970’s cinematography, it’s accompanying video is presented as an action packed trailer for a fictional film that features all manner of deceit, violence and general hedonism. Check out its visuals and get the full details of their upcoming tour with the hotly tipped YAK
