"SECRETS AND IRISES’ DEBUT EP ‘SEASONS’ PACKS PLENTY OF CHANGE"

Seasons is an apt title as the EP features various moods and sonic textures which mirror the changing of the weather. The groovy rock of “Golden Circles” is perfect for summer listening, while the down-tempo, melancholy keys and reverb-drenched guitars on the first half of “Clouds with Sharp Corners” are synonymous with wintertime gloominess. “Twenty-Four,” however, is the most interesting song because its tone completely shifts within the track, changing from crunchy rock ’n’ roll to a beat machine and ethereal synths show halfway through.

Regardless of whether the changes happen during a song or in between them, it’s unlikely that any two tunes will sound alike. - SA Current

Bio

Secrets and Irises formed in late 2009 as a three piece consisting of Tony Herrera (bass/vocal), Joshua Barrera (guitar), and Carlos Jimenez(drums). They began performing as a three piece in mid 2010 until they acquired two new musicians in the form of Jesster Boyce and Devon Gonzalez as guitarist and bassist respectively. As this five piece the band started generating a bit of buzz around the local San Antonio area playing a good amount of show, due to creative differences Tony was released from the band and Josh took over vocal duties, Devon would soon follow leave Josh to transition from guitarist to bassist. The band however pushed through as a three piece again and began playing more and more shows. in 2012 the band found the missing ingredients that they were looking for with Kelsey Novak as lead vocalist and Joey Gonzalez as rhythm guitarist. The newly improved band used the momentum of the line up change to produce their debut EP 'Seasons' as well as book gigs with large name bands and break out of the San Antonio area if only slightly. They are currently working on their new full length and have never looked stronger.
