}}The Wet Secrets are a Canadian indie rock band from Edmonton, Alberta, known for their signature red and white marching band uniforms, and harmonious layers of horns, synthesizers, booming bass lines, percussion, drums and voice.[1]

The band was formed on an impromptu dare between bassist Lyle Bell and drummer Trevor Anderson to write, record and release an album within one week. Their debut album A Whale of A Cow is the result (2005).[2]

The band's second album, Rock Fantasy, was released online on Valentine's Day, 2007, peaking at the #2 spot on the CBC Radio 3 charts.[3] It was later re-released in hard copy in 2008.[4] “Secret March”, a track from the Rock Fantasy album, was recognized by Grant Lawrence of CBC Radio 3 as one of the Top 20 Best Songs of the 2000s.[5]

After a hiatus spent focusing on other projects (Bell with Shout Out Out Out Out and Anderson directing Sundance Film Festival selected films) the band released a new album, Free Candy, in early 2014. Later that year, The Wet Secrets won the inaugural Peak Performance Project award (2014),[6] an award designed to help develop Alberta-based emerging artists; and shortly thereafter, signed with Canadian record label Six Shooter Records.[7] Free Candy was nominated for Best Rock Recording by the Western Canadian Music Awards in 2014; and in 2015, The Wet Secrets won the Edmonton Music Award for Album of the Year for Free Candy and Music Video of the Year for Nightlife.[8]

In January 2016, The Wet Secrets released the EP, I Can Live Forever. CBC Music had included one of its four tracks, “I Can Swing A Hammer” in their Songs You Need To Hear, November 26, 2015 edition, calling it a “jangly, catchy, fist-pumping anthem”, worthy of repeating every morning.[9]

Band members

The original five members of the band were Lyle Bell, Trevor Anderson, Kim Rackel, Donna Ball and Jeremy Nischuk. Musician Doug Organ contributed to the Rock Fantasy album.
