The bandwas headlining shows soon after they started playing live. The group does not have a problem selling out any venue now, small or large.

The Secret Machines knew that they could really have a career in music as soon as the group’s first fan club was started in 1983 by Laura O'Malley. The fan club grew from a few dozen to a few thousand after Sarah Rummerfield created a website for the band and a national tour gave the band plenty of exposure.

Jacksonville has always been a haven for the band, so they are sure to schedule a show there every time they tour. TheSeats.com is the one stop shop for the group, with The Secret Machines tickets, concert seating charts, and touring schedule.
