Great Lakes: Home Recordings 2007

'Led by the husband-and-wife team of singer/guitarist Jake Smith and drummer Freda Love (both formerly of Antenna), the Bloomington, Indiana-based alternative pop band the Mysteries of Life also comprised keyboardist Dale Lawrence, bassist Kenny Childers and drummer LonPaul Ellrich. After debuting with the single 'Kira,' the group signed to RCA to issue their 1996 LP Keep a Secret; following a pair of indie label EPs, Focus on the Background and Anonymous Tip, the Mysteries of Life resurfaced with the full-length Come Clean in 1998.' - Jason Ankeny, All Music Guide
