The latest news from the Secret Machines' camp is pretty huge. The band contributed several tracks to the upcoming Beatles-themed film "Across the Universe."One of which just happens to be "I Am The Walrus" featuring Bono on vocals! Not a bad collaboration for an indie band to score!

This isn't The Secret Machines first run in with the pop legends, either. In February 2006 they got to open for U2 during their Vertigo tour in Mexico. The Edge is also a big fan of the band, quoted in the August 2007 issue of Uncute magazine saying Secret Machines' record Now Here is Nowhere is the "last record he fell in love with."

It's good to hear the band is still doing well after a hectic year. Benjamin Curtis, one of the two brothers that founded Secret Machines, left the band earlier this year to pursue another project. The remaining members, Brandon Curtis and Josh Garza have kept the band going strong into 2007. In fact, they recently debuted a set of brand new tunes during their residency at The Annex in New York City.
If you are curious to hear what the band has been up to since working with Bono and rearranging their lineup, definitely grab tickets to the upcoming tour!
