What are you most proud about
your 2018 EP?
The fact that we finally immortal-
ized some of our music. I’m es-
pecially proud of how perfect the
tune ‘Largemouth Bass’ came out
as a rock/swampy country radio-
friendly song. ‘Metatron’ sounds
so epic and huge that it really
does capture the live feeling of
us in fifth gear on a big stage. The
single ‘I’ll Be Your Jungle Lover’
has been added to numerous
worldwide funk playlists and is in
heavy rotation on an African radio
station that apparently has a huge
signal. We’ve been getting follow-
ers and Facebook likes from South
Africa, Namibia and as far north as
Kenya and Ethiopia.

What is the status of releasing a
follow-up record?
We will be dropping the next one
in conjunction with our appear-
ance at Jams on the Sand in As-
bury Park in August!
Secret Sound frequently are
called upon to play great gigs,
especially in Asbury Park. What
has the band’s greatest accom-
plishment been, why and to
what else did it lead?
Two shows. Performing the All-
man Brothers’ ‘Live at the Fill-
more’ at the Pony and playing
after Dark Star Orchestra in 2017
at the Pony were the two most
important shows we’ve done be-
cause it really woke people up to
us and a lot of people embraced
us after that. It’s funny for a band
