LOS ANGELES (Warner Bros) - Following a 2004 East Coast tour of the U.S with The Fire Theft and Mellowdrone, the Secret Machines will be headlining their own tour going back to the East Coast as well as Canada.
Comprised of the brothers Ben and Brandon Curtis and Josh Garza, Secret Machines have been a fixture of the thriving Dallas music scene since the late Nineties. In the years since, the band relocated to New York City, released an independent EP September 000. Their major label debut, "Nowhere is Now Here" was released to critical acclaim last May on Reprise Records.

The trio has been featured in year-end lists from such notable publications as Rolling Stone, SPIN and Entertainment Weekly; have performed on the Late Show with David Letterman, the Late Late Show and Last Call with Carson Daly. The band will perform on Jimmy Kimmel Live on February 22nd.
The Secret Machines continue to receive a a warm reception as critical acclaim continues to pour in. The Boston Globe advises, "Mark down the name Secret Machines. The group's new album, 'Nowhere is Now Here,' has literally come out of nowhere with a neo-psychedelic sound that could make it on e of the most acclaimed discs of the year." Elle magazine has described the band as, "a stereolab whose grooves feel as paranoid as they are pastoral." An apt description for a band that derives a major influence from The Band, Pink Floyd other such acts who came to be at the crossroads of psychedelia and folk-rock.
Add in a modern, indie-rock inspired makeover and you have an omnipotent sound and live show that appeal to music fans across the board. As Entertainment Weekly so eloquently put it "Now Here Is Nowhere is solitaire rock for a new era, in which shutting out the world isn't just a luxury but sometimes a necessity."
