Biography

Although Official Secrets Act formed in Leeds, England, it was a move to London that would help propel their momentum, earning the band attention from the press and radio. The trio -- Thomas Charge Burke (guitar, vocals), Alexander Dunlop Mackenzie (drums, vocals), and Lawrence James Diamond (bass, vocals) -- won plaudits from BBC DJs such as Steve Lamacq and was able to land some tracks, such as the song "Snakes and Ladders," on various compilations.
