"A big, broad musical vocabulary came together easily, without jump-cutting or wrenching shifts of style. Mr. Argue made all these elements belong together naturally." — Ben Ratliff, New York Times
Vancouver-born, Brooklyn-based composer Darcy James Argue is the ringleader and mastermind behind Secret Society, an 18-piece band devoted to his cunning original music. Secret Society unveiled themselves to the unwary public in May 2005 and have been recruiting allies to their cause ever since.
thanks very much for accepting my request, sir. your music is very inspiring. feel free to stop by the page and comment sometime. i always like hearing from my friends and i always answer my comments.
driving home listening to Jazz Up Late with Gerry Koster on the ABC, almost made it to the maccas drive through, but not quite because the program finished... damm mcchickens with clean pants...
The last song was the tune 'Habeas Corpus' from the new album Infernal Machines.
You are most cordially invited to Melbourne's Steampunk Night-Club, Steampunkerie, happening 20th June @ Chi Lounge
Look at the gorgeous, gorgeous venue we've been able to secure...
The decor has been described as "Old Shanghai opium den meets English drawing room and makes wild passionate love. Think Chesterfields, Klimt prints, carved screens and brocade covered walls." There's an extensive cocktail and tapas menu for your enjoyment.
Places are strictly limited, so don't tarry, pick up your ticket quick smart! Entry is $25 and this includes a complimentary cocktail or two basic spirit drinks to begin your evening.
