Deal With Consequences: Milton Keynes artist Alex Dennis reminds us that there are ‘No Secrets’

Posted on 26 August 2021

After releasing his debut EP ‘Dangerous Game‘ back in October 2016 and with the second much-anticipated EP due in September 2021, Alex Dennis shows us into his thought provoking world with the new single about being careful with what you do on ‘No Secrets‘.

Alex Dennis is a Milton Keynes-based, Bedfordshire-born indie alt-rock singer-songwriter, piano/keys and sax player.

”From 2014-2017, Alex Dennis studied at the London College of Creative Media in which he gained a BMus degree in Music Performance and Production.” ~ Alex Dennis

Performed with an honest outlook and with a sweeping beat to take you off your feet, this is a song to play when you are in that introspective mood to ponder more than what meets most eyes.

”No Secrets was written at the end of 2019 and the subject matter is about our behaviour as human beings being displayed in public with technology keeping us under surveillance everywhere we go and we can’t hide it. The song then does explain what happens if worst comes to worst and that could be if our actions are shown in the papers or on the internet.” ~ Alex Dennis

‘No Secrets‘ from the Milton Keynes, UK-based indie alt-rock singer-songwriter/pianist and sax player Alex Dennis, is a stark warning that there are so many sneaky cameras lurking at every dimly-lit corner, as there is always someone watching. Sung with a vigor and a passionate output into the shaking speakers, this is a message we all need reminding about.
