Immaculate Machine are a Canadian indie pop band from Victoria, British Columbia. The group, which is made up of Brooke Gallupe on guitar, Kathryn Calder on keyboards, and Luke Kozlowski on drums, released two self-published albums before signing with 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. The band makes frequent use of two and three-part vocal harmonies; all members share vocal duties both live and in the studio.

The band began attracting national and international attention in 2005 when Calder became a sometime member of The New Pornographers, appearing on the album "Twin Cinema" and touring with the band. Calder is the niece of New Pornographers leader A.C. Newman.

The band's name is taken from the lyrics of "One-Trick Pony" from the album "One-Trick Pony" by Paul Simon.

In early June 2007, the band's song, "Jarhand" was featured as the iTunes free single of the week.

In 2008 Kathryn Calder designed a t-shirt for the [http://www.yellowbirdproject.com Yellow Bird Project] , on behalf of The New Pornographers and Immaculate Machine, to raise funds to aid sufferers of Lou Gehrig's Disease.
