The Great Machine (Israel Desert Rock): + Special Guests: Sunday Matinee, Herford

On 11.11.2011 The Great Machine played their first show, in their own club in Tel-Aviv(Reality Rehab Center). Over the course of the next two years, the group performednon-stop on stages throughout the Tel Aviv area, leaving thrilled crowds in their wake.

In 2013 they recorded their first EP, in 2014 their debut album, and in 2015 the double LP 'LOVE' which was released on vinyl by 'Rock Freaks Records’ in Germany.

The group has the uncanny ability of belonging to multiple musical scenes due to their inability to belong to any specific one. "Rock & Roll" sees them as “Metalheads”, and the Metal scene calls them “Hippies”. These conservative perceptions did not stop them from shaking up the local Indie scene in Israel, while creating an alternative of their own, which gave stage to many other musicians & artists, thus founding the underground label known as 'Reality Rehab Records'.

In the fall of 2016 they headed out on a UK & Europe tour as the opening act for 'All Them Witches’, which paved the way for many more shows across Europe & the UK.

2024 brought many changes to the world, and to the group’s lineup as well.

TGM is ready to rock all stages and audiences in 2025!
