Drummer Rachel Bellinsky and guitarist Gina Fiore met while both searching for a musical project that would pay the bills. They would go on to play in casinos and nightclubs throughout Las Vegas for two years, entertaining people with countless renditions of "Hot Stuff" and "Kung Fu Fighting."
Then one day, after nearly dying of heat stroke during a summer yard party, Rachel decided she'd rather be singing and writing her own music. So she wrote some songs, recruited Gina and started recording. The end result is 'The Secret Life of Spiders', and it sounds nothing like Donna Summer.
'The Secret Life of Spiders' is an honest collection of dark, introspective songs, written in bed. They are a testament to losing things, looking for things, finding things, ruining things and ultimately deciding that "you might as well be brave" in the face of all these things. Melancholic and full of expectancy, it is the sound of waiting endlessly on a train, destination unknown.
