History
The band, consisting of five members, was called Stutterfly until a key member, Chris Stickney, decided to leave shortly after they were dropped from Maverick Records. Stickney soon moved to a band called Oceans Apart. The rest of the band, Bradyn Byron, Jason Ciolli, Jordan Chase and Ryan Loerke, approached Charles Finn (then named Charles Furney), a friend and former member of thebleedingalarm, who used to tour with them, to be their new lead singer. The new line-up became Secret and Whisper on February 24, 2007. They decided to think of a new band name because of the completely different sound that Charles' voice brought to the band.
The band signed to Tooth & Nail Records and the first album, Great White Whale was released on February 12, 2008. "XOXOXO" was released as a single off the album with an accompanying music video.
On September 15, 2009 in a MySpace blog, Charles announced the official departure of Bradyn Byron. The band has since recruited David Ecker as guitarist. Ecker previously played guitar for Oceans Apart with former Stutterfly member Chris Stickney.
The first single off the second album, Teenage Fantasy, was "Warrior (Southern Arrowwood)". The album was released on April 6, 2010. On February 4, 2011, the band released a B-side track "Pixie" through myspace.
On July 12, 2011 it was announced via Facebook note that the band was going on a hiatus. Members of S&W Jordan Chase, Ryan Loerke and David Ecker have since gone on to form the band Shreddy Krueger.
