ABOUT //
Currently based out of both New Jersey and North Carolina, Hidden Cabins is an eclectic, indie alt-folk duo comprised of Craig Cirinelli (microphone/hand percussion) & Brian Hofgesang (guitars/textures), writing melodic songs with a simplified vision, yet complex emotive flair. Far reaching exposure has seen the duo journey both within and outside of the US on multiple trips to England, reaching Scotland, Spain and Canada, to perform.
Hidden Cabins 'small batch' releases have found their way across multiple countries with the help of multiple indie labels. Their first few recordings were tracked as a duo, with textured acoustic and electric guitars, thought-provoking, powerful vocals, and simplistic synth beats alongside organic hand percussion weaving through their sound. In this format, Hidden Cabins supported two, 10-inch vinyl releases, a CD EP and a flexi 7-inch on indie labels such as Engineer Records (UK), Koi Records (US), Combover Records (US), Oak Apple Records (CAN), and Friends+Neighbors collective (US).
After years of solely performing as a duo, Hidden Cabins expanded their sound by joining up with drummer Rich Perry and bassist Jason DelGuidice, recording an EP as a four piece aptly titled The Hidden Cabins Band, which widened the scope of their sound. This EP arrived on indie labels Engineer Records (UK) and Pyrrhic Victory Recordings (US). The band played intermittently as a four-piece thereafter, when a move out-of-state resulted in the group's hiatus. Enter 2024, Brian and Craig reignited Hidden Cabins, recording a new batch of material which will see their release in 2025 on Creep Records (USA) and Engineer Records (UK), while also rebooting their live set, gigging between duo sets, as well as trio and four-piece band sets after long time friends Brian Leahy and Tom Conti energetically joined the fold. This flexibility of delivering their songs has brought Hidden Cabins back to rooms near and far.
