The world's most popular social networking hub, MySpace, have announced that they are teaming up with Samsung, for it's 150th installment of the hugely popular Secret Show franchise, an original concert series that fuses the online and offline music experience and further connects fans and bands through intimate, "friends only" performances.

This landmark 150th Secret Show will feature Grammy award winning duo Gnarls Barkley, who launched their U.S. career two years ago with a MySpace Secret Show, their first live concert in the United States.

The 150th Secret Show will take place on June 8 in New York City at Manhattan's famed Fillmore theatre at Irving Plaza. Gnarls Barkley will be joined by indie rock super group Battles.

Since the launch of MySpace Secret Shows in February 2006, the series has showcased some of today's greatest artists across all music genres in cities all over the world from The Cure in Sydney, Australia to Ice Cube in Virginia Beach to Justice in Hamburg to Slayer and Mastodon in Salt Lake City. The shows are exclusive to the MySpace community and once notified that a Secret Show is happening in their area, users can print out their personal MySpace profiles displaying Secret Shows in their top friends, which serves as their ticket to the show.

Gnarls Barkley, The Grammy winning combination of artist/producer Danger Mouse and vocalist Cee-Lo Green have recently released their new album The Odd Couple, which Entertainment Weekly hailed as "impeccably produced and impressively layered an esoteric love letter."

The album, featuring the singles Run and Going On is the follow up to the group's platinum-plus selling debut St. Elsewhere which was not only critically lauded but a chart-topping worldwide blockbuster. St. Elsewhere was nominated for seven Grammy Awards with the band getting trophies for Best Alternative Album and Best Urban Alternative Performance.
