THE SECRET TO LIFE
by FIZZ

Musical collective FIZZ's highly anticipated debut album The Secret To Life was released on Friday 27 October 2023 via Decca Records. FIZZ were born when long-time friends and musicians dodie, Orla Gartland, Greta Isaac and Martin Luke Brown came together to make music together as a band for the first time. 

Locking themselves away at Middle Farm Studios with sonic wizard Pete Miles, engineer Soren Bryce and drummer Mat Swales, FIZZ ripped up their personal musical rule books to embrace creative freedom, maximalist music making and most importantly, fun.

What emerged after a whirlwind two weeks together was their technicolour, psychedelic and wholly unpredictable debut album The Secret To Life - 12 tracks that exist somewhere in the space between reality and make believe, featuring the singles High In Brighton, Hell of a Ride, Close One and As Good As It Gets. On their quest to discover The Secret To Life, the band traverse the bombastic, the silly and the heartfelt, rounding everything out with a five minute, five part, theatrical no holds barred curtain closer. 

Upon the release of The Secret To Life, the band said “This record encapsulates life in our twenties; it’s chaotic, unpredictable, messy - but it can also be beautiful with the right people by your side. We’re so happy this body of work is out in its entirety and we encourage you to turn it up LOUD. Making this record was truly a life changing experience for us and we hope the joy we felt making it can be felt by everyone who listens.”

In its opening week, The Secret To Life entered the UK Official Albums Chart Top 40 peaking at Number 31.
