Exclusive Interview: Telling Secrets Launches Second Single, “Casting Stones”
Telling Secrets represents a euphoric liberation from the deep depression of lockdown across the globe. In 2020, the sole architect of the group, Vik Kovacs, recorded material around which the band; Augustus William Clark, Matteo Tontodonati and Lewis Wheeler – was formed.
Hailing from District VII. in Budapest, Kovacs tells stories of blinding passion and temptation leading to corruption. His music is a reflection of his difficult and complicated upbringing. After graduating from the Royal Northern College of Music in Manchester, UK, Kovacs teamed with SLAVES vocalist, Matt McAndrew, who guided him to kick start the project with fellow band member, Zack Baker, performing on and mixing the track ‘SECRET LIES’. Kovacs wanted to inspire a community of people disoriented by modernity.
