Description
With a frontman who tends to write in the nude, it is not surprising that Louis XIV are a bit naughty.
One part mischievous schoolboy and one part retro sophisticate, San-Diego based Louis XIV is emerging from a quiet internet enterprise that sold thousand copies of it's 2003 self-titled debut and follow up EP's. Louis XIV are a foursome nearly as glam as their wig-wearing, Versailles-building namesake.
Louis XIV comprises of Jason Hill (producer / vocalist / guitarist / pianist), shares vocal, guitar and piano duties with friend Brian Karscig (guitarist / vocalist / pianist), Mark Maigaard (drummer), and James Armburst (bass-player)
The band's major label debut, was produced, recorded and engineered by Jason Hill. The set pairs songs from their self-released album and EPs along with new material, recorded in November/December 2004 at the band's San Diego studio, built specifically for the recordings in a refurbished urban church.
The Best Little Secrets Are Kept is loaded with a raft of inspired songs that burst out of your speakers like they were on fire, mixing the sparkle of the best glam rock, the low-down crunch of the best of classic rock bands like the Stones, and the direct lyrical approach of poets like David Lee Roth or Bon Scott.
