Welcome to our temporary home on the information superhighway. We hail from Boston, Massachusetts and we would love it if you take a little listen to our music and maybe even come out and see us live.Band/artist history
The Secondary Theory was formed in December of 2000. Mark Giese and Matt Gregory had played guitar together for some time when they began playing with a third guitar player, Jim Burke. With six original songs written by Giese and Gregory, and many Dave Matthews Band cover songs, they played for a small room of roughly thirty people. Thus, the "band", consisting of three passionate acoustic guitar players, was formed. The guys performed at friends houses and at local coffee shops. In January of 2001 they recorded a demo CD called Turn Away with 4 rough studio tracks and three live songs recorded at a local performance. In March of that year the band decided to expand itself and invited two new members into the band, Mike Barry on drums, and Ted Geary on violin. The additions to the band were crucial in turning the group into a dynamic band with a truly unique sound. With a full band Giese and Gregory's original songs were revamped with drums, violin, and bass, and the two wrote new songs with a full band in mind. In February of 2002 Jim Burke left the band, so they went in search of a bass player. That's when they found Tim Hare. Tim's bass skills were the perfect addition to the music and in August of 2003 the band recorded a four song demo. With demo in hand, The Secondary theory hopes to start a serious fan base in the Boston and New York City area.Have you performed in front of an audience?Of Course we do. If you haven't seen us, you are missing out on some sweet stuff. We prefer playing live to anything else. Being fueled by the energy of the audience is one of the better feelings a human can experience.
