No Secrets was a lady band from the United States comprised of five members: Angel Faith, Carly Lewis, Erin Tanner, Jessica Fried and Jade Ryusaki, No Secrets debuted from the United States in 2002 with their single Kids in America, which was featured for the Jimmy Neutron movie soundtrack. Their melody video for the track Kids in America is integrated at the end on the Jimmy Neutron movie VHS.
Except for Carly Lewis, who was born in London, England, the members of No Secrets grew up in Los Angeles. Carly, who is the daughter of Adrian Gurvitz, a famed guitarist, took the very first steps toward forming No Secrets in 2000, when she convinced her father that it was her dream to become a musician, and the he could make it come true. The pair then determined to form a lady group. Cousins Jade Ryusaki and Erin Tanner, who were both of Hawaiian descent and had performed as hula hoop dancers, were scouted and subsequently tied the group. Then, Gurvitz placed an advertisement in a neighborhood newspaper, and Angel Faith answered, bringing her friend Jessica Fried together with her.
Once the group line-up had been finished, No Secrets started video recording songs, touring, and promoting their group. In June of 2001, No Secrets joined Aaron Carter in Toronto for that shooting of his video Oh Aaron, and additionally they collaborated in the taping with the song, providing background vocals. In 2002, they filmed their first video, a home VHS and DVD video named No Secrets - Get to Know Us. Later, in 2002, the group released their self-titled debut album, which included That's What Girls Do (from The PowerPuff Girls Movie) and Kids in America (from Jimmy Neutron: Boy Genius), a remake of this 1982 hit which was popularized by Kim Wilde.
On the other hand, disagreements between members with the group led to the eventual break-from No Secrets. At one point, Carly, Jade, Erin, and Jessica recorded a remake of Atomic Kitten's hit "Whole Again," excluding (and unbeknownst to) Angel (coincidentally, fellow girl group Play had also covered "Whole Again" in the same time period and released it as just one from their album Replay). Angel, who had sung the majority of leads in No Secrets, then left the group to pursue a solo career. The four remaining members recorded and shot a video for the song "Once Upon Another Dream" for Disney's re-release of Sleeping Beauty, but they parted ways soon after this.
Besides Angel Faith, Jessica Fried is also believed to be pursuing a solo career, under the name "Jessi Malay." Erin Tanner has adopted the stage name "Nicki Foxx" (sometimes just "Nicki") and is also working on solo material.
In August of 2005, Carly Lewis married her fiancee Brian Merrick. Previous No Secrets affiliates Jade, Jessica, and Erin were among Carly's bridesmaids.
