The Secret Beach is the long-running musical home of Manitoba songwriter Micah Erenberg (AKA Karima Micah).

For well over a decade, Erenberg has been making records, touring relentlessly, and building a body of work that exists largely outside the usual machinery of the music industry. Yet somehow, The Secret Beach has become part of the furniture. A favourite artist of your favourite artist. A name murmured outside a show. Your bandmate's favourite sweater.

Rooted in the Prairies, the music draws equally from country music, folk songs, chicken shack rock n' roll, and the particular humour and melancholy of small-town life. Alongside longtime collaborator Daniel Diamond and a revolving cast of friends and fellow travellers, Erenberg has built a catalogue of songs filled with characters you know, places you've been, roadside reflections, and the strange beauty of everyday life.

In 2025, The Secret Beach's album We Were Born Here, What's Your Excuse? received a JUNO nomination for Adult Alternative Album of the Year.
