The Gideon & Hubcap Show (Groundswell Theatricals / Something For The Weekend)

By Daisy Malt | Published on Saturday 22 August 2015

Two life-long friends from New York, Gideon and Hubcap are used to taking their shows to the living rooms of America, having performed in over 300 people’s homes to date. Singing about love, friendship and safe-words, their unique brand of stove-top folk features countless instruments, including their own bodies. They created a musical whirlwind that delighted everyone, with wonderfully silly songs that reminded me of ‘Flight of the Conchords’. The crowd were involved from the start and made to feel as though they were in one of the guys’ usual front-room venues. A highly engaging duo, Gideon and Hubcap have crafted a wonderfully entertaining show that balances daftness with great musical talent.

Underbelly George Square, until 23 Aug.
