Secret Affair, an influential band that sprang into the music scene during the late 1970s, carved a niche for themselves in the Mod Revival movement that swept through the UK. The band was formed in 1978 by Ian Page and David Cairns, melding their passion for 1960s mod music with the energy and style of the late '70s to create something truly unique. Their debut album, "Glory Boys," released in 1979, was a manifesto of the Mod Revival, featuring anthemic songs that resonated with the youth of the time, including the iconic hit "Time For Action" which epitomized the band's call to the mod ethos and their vibrant energy.
Over the years, Secret Affair continued to release albums that captured the essence of their initial allure while also demonstrating their musical evolution. Albums such as "Behind Closed Doors" and "Business As Usual" saw the band delve deeper into their mod roots while experimenting with new sounds and lyrical depths. Although they disbanded in 1982, their legacy and influence on the mod scene and beyond remained undisputed. The band reformed multiple times since the late 1980s, releasing "Soho Dreams" in 2012, a testament to their enduring appeal and musical relevance. Through their catchy melodies, sharp dress, and spirited performances, Secret Affair has maintained a loyal following and continues to perform, embodying the enduring spirit of the mod movement.
