School of Seven Bells is a new band formed by Benjamin Curtis of Secret Machines. He left Secret Machines in early 2007 to concentrate on the new band solely.

The band's current lineup includes twins Alejandra and Claudia Deheza, formerly of On! Air! Library!.

Curtis and the Deheza sisters met when both were opening on an Interpol tour. [http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/45018-ben-curtis-talks-school-of-seven-bells-secret-machines Ben Curtis Talks School of Seven Bells, Secret Machines] Pitchfork Aug 21, 2007.]

The band is named after the "School of the Seven Bells", a legendary pickpocket training academy.

A single "My Cabal" was released in May 2007 on the UK label Sonic Cathedral.

A 12"/digital EP "Face to Face on High Places" was released in September 2007 on Table of the Elements, in addition to a single from Prefuse 73 called "Class of 73 Bells" that features the band.

The band toured with Blonde Redhead in September, 2007 and with Prefuse 73 in November, 2007.

School of Seven Bells' debut album, "Alpinisms", is due for U.S. release on October 28, 2008.

The band is slated to perform at the WIDR Barking Tuna Festival in October, 2008
