The Beating Heart of Music

At one point of their lives, a number of iconic artists have found themselves in Camden. There is something about the rich culture and dynamic energy that attracts talented performers to the London neighborhood. 

The new docuseries, Camden, explores the titular location and dives into the untold stories of various singers and bands on how their careers and lives were influenced while there. Listen to firsthand accounts from the likes of Chris Martin, Boy George, Mark Ronson, Chuck D and more.

All episodes of Camden drop Wednesday, May 29, on Hulu. 

The Rise to the Top

When we last left We Are Lady Parts, the band started to make some headway in their musical career, and they did it their way. As a new season approaches, they are looking to ride that momentum and hopefully be exposed to a new and bigger audience.

The ladies look to take larger strides as a band. That includes hitting the road on tour and recording their first album. However, it’s not all good days as they also manage their personal lives while coming to terms with their rising fame without selling out.

Stream all of We Are Lady Parts season two beginning Thursday, May 30, on Peacock.

A Revolutionary Talent

Jim Henson was a brilliant man whose work influenced many people. Whether its the Muppets and Sesame Street, or his films such as Labyrinth and The Dark Crystal, each project showcased a whimsical creativity and storytelling.

Jim Henson Idea Man explores his journey growing up and his rise in entertainment from local television to a household name all over the globe. The documentary includes his more intimate and personal side through interviews with his closest colleagues to home movies and his own diary entries. 

Jim Henson Idea Man premieres Friday, May 31, on Disney+.
