The Secret to Life is the debut studio album by the indie pop supergroup Fizz, released on 27 October 2023 by Decca Records and Universal Music Group. It was recorded over a two-week period[1] at Middle Farm Studios in South Devon with Peter Miles.[2]

In the production of The Secret to Life, the band bypassed many production tools commonly used in contemporary pop music and relied on real instruments and recording live takes of songs directly onto tape. This approach, as discussed in interviews, imparts a nostalgic quality reminiscent of the music of the 1960s and 1970s.[3][4]
