Details:
Dirty Little Secret is pure energy, not only penetrating space, but surpassing the cosmos and becoming an all-encompassing, pulsing, writhing organism existing by means of sexual vigor, creativity, and various chemical reactions that ultimately reaches the point of critical mass and much like a volcano erupts in an aural orgasm. Contrasts in volume, clarity, feedback, melodic structures, pop and innovation form a collage of sounds. A wide array of emotions and textures fills even the largest expanse.
The genealogy of Dirty Little Secret stretches back to high school, where Los Angeles natives Louis Castle (singer/guitarist) and James Bairian (bassist) became best friends, doing everything together from ditching school to songwriting.
Officially, Dirty Little Secret was formed in the summer of 2002, and recorded a five-song EP in 2004. Over the years, stylistic modifications and a musical maturity became apparent between Castle and Bairian, but something was missing. The puzzle pieces were found in 2005 when Castle and Bairian started playing with Brian Monte (drums) and Torin Gerhart (lead guitar). The four quickly became good friends, sharing the same musical taste, sense of humor and outlook on life. “…so after we’re done dropping acid with Jimi Hendrix we can make sure God sends Bono to hell along with those dudes from Aerosmith,” Gerhart said once while contemplating the afterlife.
In 2005, the born again Dirty Little Secret entered the studio to record their first full-length album. After six weeks of tracking, engineering and self-production, the resulting album, Cabin Fever, brought that summer to an alleviating close.
Cabin Fever is a myriad of sensations. With the manipulation of everything between sound and noise, Dirty Little Secret forges dark and sexy vibrations. “Shake your hips, hush hush your lips,” Castle croons in a near whisper over oscillating guitars; the force swells until all the mounting tension is released in a cathartic scream. Using everything from moog synthesizers and melotrons to cellos and Rhodes pianos, a new sound is fashioned. Processed vocals become instruments within themselves, the sounds of the street corners and creaking doors exist only in harmony with the music behind it.
Although the sounds are experimental, they are accessible enough to draw in listeners. The album track “Long Gone” was featured on the HBO series Entourage. With their captivating hooks, “Hush your Lips” and “Guns, Guns, Guns” are starting to shake their way across Los Angles radio waves.
Despite the lack of a booking agent, management, or even a label, Dirty Little Secret has toured overseas and nationally, reaching critical cache with only a five song EP. A thundering live show follows them in whatever time zone they find themselves. They have managed to share the stage with Beck, The Bravery, The Walkmen, Peaches, Les Savy Fav, Maximo Park, We Are Scientists, TV on the Radio, and the infamous John Cale to name a few.
Amidst an intense touring schedule Castle and Bairian have found the time to record many other bands. The latest of which is the indie duo, Giant Drag. LA Weekly raves: “Bairian and Castle’s production of Giant Drag’s ‘Hearts & Unicorns’ CD gave some indication of their sonic mastery.”
Dirty Little Secret forms a unique voice in today’s music scene. Standing out like an analog beacon in a digital sea, Dirty Little Secret blurs the lines between hi and lo-fi. The spotlight is shining on Dirty Little Secret, preparing the world for the 2006 release of Cabin Fever.
