Secret Towns

From the suburbs to the city of Atlanta, brings Secret Towns. Started in 2018, this creative project started by singer and guitarist Luke Thornton grew overtime into a full group, starting with bassist Sam Pena, drummer Harry Dulaney and then joined by keyboardist Irving Molefe and guitarist John Burns. Combining lush atmospheres and psychedelic pop, they started playing shows all over Atlanta’s music scene. In 2020 the band released their debut EP, ‘Small Hours' right when the world was about to change. In the midst of this, the band was slowly able to put together and record their first album, ‘Nightlights’, an album documenting suburban mecholzx. Over the past couple of years, Secret Towns have been putting together a new collection of music for their second album. Secret Towns is about how people and places that end up only becoming memories end up living inside of ourselves. Their second album, recorded and mixed by Ben Etter at Maze Studio, explores their own city of Atlanta and how the past of the city reflects upon the present, particularly during the summer season, a time that tends to hold so much light but never seems to last. Secret Towns makes the effort to crystallize certain places, people, and times so, at the end of the day, they can live outside and reflect the secret memories everyone has.
