22 May 2023, 16:05 | Written by Tyler Damara Kelly

The album announcement coincides with new single, "Bananas".

"Bananas" is accompanied by video which Ethan Osman directed.

Keeping Secrets Will Destroy You was recorded in Louisville by Nick Roeder, featuring Sara Louise Callaway on violin, Kendall Carter on keys, Elisabeth Fuchsia on viola and violin, Dave Howard on Mandolin, Drew Miller on saxophone and Dane Waters’ voice. The presence of local players and music educators in the band encompasses a wide range of musics from classical to Japanese acid folk and elsewhere, but perhaps even more importantly, to the sense of community.
