Victoria BC, Canada (2003 – 2011)

Immaculate Machine was a indie pop band from Victoria, British Columbia, active from 2003 to 2011. The group consisted of Brooke Gallupe on guitar, Kathryn Calder on keyboard, Caitlin Gallupe on bass, Aden Collinge on drums and Jordan Minkoff on guitar. Leslie Rewega occasionally toured with the band playing keyboard and percussion. Brooke Gallupe performs most vocal parts, but Kathryn Calder often joins as a backing vocalist.

The band’s name is taken from the lyrics of “One-Trick Pony” from the album One-Trick Pony by Paul Simon.

The band released The View and Transporter independently before signing to label Mint Records in early 2005.

Their Mint Records debut, Ones and Zeros, came out on September 6, 2005, and they supported the album with a tour of Canada and the United States. That year, Calder also became a sometime member of The New Pornographers, appearing on the album Twin Cinema and touring with the band. She is the niece of New Pornographers leader A.C. Newman.

In early June 2007, the band’s song Jarhand, the first single from their third album Immaculate Machine’s Fables, was featured as the iTunes free single of the week.

In 2009, the band saw some member changes. Luke Kozlowski left the band and was replaced by Aden Collinge. Caitlin Gallupe, Brooke’s sister, joined the band on bass guitar.

    (3 of 2)....all in all, it was an amazing, energetic show by one of Canada's most innovative, stellar indie bands today! The new touring band supported Brooke's guitar playing, and vocal contributions strongly. Caitlin Gallupe, Aden Collinge, Jordan Minkoff all sounded extemely cohesive and together and unless you were a die hard Immmaculate Machine fan like i am, Brooke's touring trifecta made it quite difficult to notice Kathryn's absence.....Kathryn, we missed you last night, and I long for the next time I get to see you play with Immaculate Machine! Thanks guys for a wonderful show last night! You certainly have made this music fan's year!

I'm late to this news. God, this painful. It was said to me before that everyone would find a band that gave their voice to music, something unexplainable would link the two and that connection would be extremely powerful. You did that for me. Your …
