Secret Solis
7:30pm Saturday 11th November 2017
Wow, wow, wow.......we are so excited to be welcoming back this beautiful duo.....
Secret Solis' haunting vocal harmonies combine seamlessly and journey in intensity and style, from ethereal and reflective to engaging and gritty. Exploring the complexities of life through music, Secret Solis engenders an appeal that is universal.
“Beautiful, warm and rich vocal harmonies. Makes me feel like crying, dancing and laughing. These guys really have something.” – James Sanger (Dido, Sinead O’Connor, Annie Lennox, U2, The Cure, Madonna)
Secret Solis' debut EP, Deep Down, produced by Jeff Martin (The Tea Party) will be released on the 16th June 2017.
"I have been waiting years to produce a sound like this at River House Studios. Of all the production work I have done over the last 25 years, including my work with The Tea Party, Secret Solis' EP, Deep Down is in the top five of work that I am most proud of." Jeff Martin (The Tea Party, 777, The Armada, The Eternal)
Between sold out tours of Australia and Canada in 2016, Jeff Martin (The Tea Party) invited Secret Solis to record their debut EP, Deep Down at River House Studios near Byron Bay. The result being an EP of indie folk / rock anthems, the tracks resonating with both Led Zeppelin’s driving acoustic rock and the ethereal ballads of Pink Floyd. Jeff's eastern palette adds an eclectic flavour to the Deep Down EP that is reminiscent of his early albums with The Tea Party, as in Splendor Solis and Edges of Twilight.
Secret Solis was formed in 2012 when Cairns based singer/songwriter, Kian Eder met Cally Pysden, a pianist and singer/songwriter from Adelaide. Before meeting Cally, Kian's music was heavily influenced by bands like Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, The Tea Party and A Perfect Circle. Collaborating with Cally added a new dimension to Kian’s vision, elevating the music to new heights with her soaring ethereal vocals the likes of Enya, Dido, Sia and Amy-Lee. Enter Jeff Martin as producer and musician using production techniques straight out of Jimmy Page’s playbook, and you have a special magic happening in the mix.
Jeff agreed to produce the band after hearing only a few seconds of their demo, 'Speechless Soul', and the rest is history. Jeff plays all the heavy guitars including some amazing solos, hurdy gurdy and synths including his boutique Theremin. He also sings on the bands debut single, 'Sunshine'. Terepai Richmond (DIG, The Whitlams, Missi Higgins, Jeff Martin) joins the line up on drums providing a John Bonham / Ginger Baker style foundation for the albums songs.
Performance
Fusing elements from a range of genres including indie, rock, folk, blues and roots with eastern, Celtic and classical influences, this exciting new duo delivers a captivating and emotive live performance. As diverse as they are unique, the duo draws on simple, soulful song structures to emphasise the lyrical and melodic content of their music. Their songs range from slow reflective ballads, to driving rock fusion with many adventures in between.
Renowned for their unique male / female vocal harmonies and emotive and professional performances, Secret Solis has a combined 30 years experience and always manages to captivate their audience.
