Keeping a Secret
The Tell Alls
New Release! The Tell Alls have ended there 20-year gap between full-length releases on October 23rd, 2026. 'Keeping a Secret', a lyric pulled from the albums lone piano-based song "Abalone", showcases multi-instrumentalist/singer/songwriter Ken Buono's sense for a long lasting melodic hook within a lyrical landscape that ventures into the realm of Love: finding it, losing it, the challenges of keeping love alive within relationships, as well as some self-examination. The 1st single "Road Gets Rough" (featuring Lilly Hiatt on duet vocals) dropped to streaming early summer 2025, signifying the first steps had been taken to get this Pop/Rock/Power Pop/Americana blended album together. The core players that make up the band, are Buono, who choice the moniker to go under as a license issued to blend styles/genre to however the songs he writes want to naturally gravitate towards (dodge pigeonholing), fellow multi-instrumentalist Kirk Swan on electric guitar (backing vocals,piano, organ, drums/percussion), and Adam Lasus. Together, the three produced this album, and as longtime friends who've come together to make music again, that joy/kindred spirit shows within the tracks! Recorded by Adam Lasus at his North Hollywood 'Studio Red', addition recording on "Road Gets Rough" by Drew Carroll at Bomb Shelter Studio East Nashville. Track List: 1.
