Disney + has shared the new trailer for its forthcoming series, Camden, which reflects on “London’s beating heart of music.” Executive produced by Dua Lipa, the four-episode series centers on “the untold stories of how the lives and careers of some of the world’s most iconic artists were influenced by this corner of the city.”
The trailer features Dua Lipa record store shopping around the neighborhood and sees Chris Martin, Noel Gallagher, Pete Doherty, and Nile Rodgers describing the meaning of Camden and its part in music history. “It’s this place of radical acceptance,” Dua says in the clip. “Seeing that makes you believe in yourself. This is really my home.”
The singer shared the trailer on Instagram, writing, “This is a big full circle moment for me and I’m so proud to be an executive producer and to have worked on a new original documentary series that celebrates the very place I started everything!!! Camden will always have a special place in my heart and I’m humbled to share that with some of my absolute musical heroes.”
Other contributors to the documentary series include Mark Ronson, Yungblud, Black Eyed Peas, Madness, Chuck D, Boy George, Sister Bliss from Faithless, Questlove, and Lauren Laverne. “You hang around and if you touch enough magic, you hope a little bit rubs off on you,” Yungblud notes in the trailer.
Camden was helmed by series director Asif Kapadia (Amy), while the individual episodes were directed by Toby Trackman, Yemi Bamiro, and Sarah Lambert. It was produced by Lightbox in association with Day One Pictures, the production company founded by Amy Winehouse’s original manager Nick Shymansky, and Dua Lipa’s Radical22. The series will premiere on Hulu on May 29.
