Nettwerk Management Signs Alt-Pop Duo The Pierces

Nettwerk is excited to announce the signing of New York-based alt-pop duo The Pierces to its management roster. The Pierces--sisters Catherine Pierce and Allison Pierce--released their self-titled debut album in 2000, but really caught the attention of music critics and music supervisors with the release of their third album, Thirteen Tales Of Love And Revenge, in 2007.

Produced by Roger Greenawalt (Nils Lofgren, Radish, Ben Kweller), Thirteen Tales Of Love And Revenge had a darker, edgier style, at times using such diverse instruments as an accordion, a calliope, bassoons, a sitar, violins, an autoharp, and a Hawaiian lap steel. It marked a definitive change in the direction of the band, which up until this point had been known as a folk rock band.

On December 5, 2007, The Pierces appeared on Gossip Girl, playing the infectious "Secret" and "Three Wishes". "Secret" was also used in promo spots for 'Dexter,' and is currently the theme song for the new critically acclaimed ABC Family show Pretty Little Liars. Check out the official music video for "Secret" above.
