Set in London’s beating heart of music, CAMDEN, screening on Disney+, reveals the untold stories of how the lives and careers of some of the world’s most iconic artists were influenced by this corner of London. 

Through archive footage, observational filming and interviews, Camden’s rich history is explored through the eyes of world-renowned musicians. Dua Lipa heads to Camden Market to explore Camden Lock Vinyl, the record store she visited as a teen, and Dingwalls where iconic acts have played throughout the decades.

As well as Dua Lipa, we hear from Noel Gallagher, Jazzie B, Chris Martin, Little Simz, Yungblud, Questlove, Pete Doherty and Carl Barat of The Libertines, Nile Rodgers, Boy George, Suggs from Madness, Black Eyed Peas, Chuck D, Eliza Rose and Lauren Laverne; they talk us through their experience of Camden, from their very first gigs to sell out concerts, the highs and lows of nights out and a youth spent discovering music.

Camden local Jazzie B of Soul II Soul said “It was an amazing experience to be a part of CAMDEN. The wonderful thing about Camden is it’s full of innovation and creativity […] I kinda feel like the gatekeeper of Camden, you gotta come through me if you wanna be a part of it.”

Meanwhile, Sister Bliss commented: “We wouldn’t be Faithless without Soul II Soul […] Camden is the place I lived, the first ever record deal, the first ever clubbing spot. The team really managed to capture Camden’s sense of energy and possibility.” Speaking about Faithless bandmate Maxi Jazz, she added: “We lost Maxi in 2022 and I wish he was here to see the documentary.”

Suzanne Lavery, Executive Producer said “[Camden] became this huge love-in of incredible artists sharing their stories and we created an incredible documentary together. It became one big rich tapestry of Camden-ness and we can’t wait for you to enjoy it all when it’s out on Disney+.”

Nick Shymansky, Executive Producer said “Amy [Winehouse] and I came here and saw Kanye’s first show together. Being around the people that are the epitome Camden is inspiring and goes on to inspire generations of music to come.
