‘The Secret’s Out’ by Andy Jans-Brown, Cameron Spike-Porter

‘The Secret’s Out’ by Andy Jans-Brown, Cameron Spike-Porter

A beat that sneaks around the corner, occasionally reminiscent of the early '90s but not quite belonging there, as it pulses too closely to the zeitgeist. ‘The Secret’s Out’ by Andy Jans-Brown is out now and is definitely more than just a playlist addition. Fine indie rock that doesn’t neglect its roots and is refined through originality. 

Andy Jans-Brown’s vocals demonstrate character and lead the track. The drums are varied without being intrusive, subtle perfection, one might say, while amidst it all, a bass holds the structure together as the lead guitar repeatedly tries to break free. Musically excellent.

Lyrically, we traverse the various facets of falling, starting with the exhilarating plunge into the embrace of love, all the way to the decay of empires. Along the way, we encounter the whimsical folly of the fool, the seductive call of propaganda, and the allure of deception. And despite all the experiences and adversities we encounter on our journey called life, a part of us always remains naive and innocent. 

Returning to the beginning, where it says, ‘I have a story for you, some of which might even be true…’, what is definitely true is that Andy Jans-Brown (vocals, guitar), Cameron Spike-Porter (bass), and David Ely (drums) have conjured up a fantastic piece of indie pop/rock and are helping shorten the wait for the album release with this eloquent piece of music.
