Makeshift Truth (Gigs Needed!!)

About Me

Makeshift Truth are a band with a history. The four piece was set up in early 2008 and since then has refused to be pigeon holed into one musical style. Due to their love of music they combine melody and aggression and aim to play, entertain and scream at anyone who will listen and sometimes even those who won't…
Their high energy stage presence, Uber tight sound and their guaranteed crowd involving live show you will always leave wanting more and always expecting the unexpected. These guys are one of those bands you need to see live to understand the awesome power of the music.
The band originally started as a 6 piece, however (as with most bands do) they encountered a multitude of problems that have included; commitment issues or quite simply musical differences. To get to where they are now Makeshift Truth have battled to keep their music and live shows going no matter how hard it’s been. The band now consists of four members, the founding fathers Mike, Oliver and Kevin and newest member Simon on Bass.
Since Simons arrival, Makeshift Truth have grown stronger as a unit. They have stuck to their guns and continued to write blistering and intense songs that will start heads nodding, feet jumping and get hearts thumping.
So whichever style of music you’re into, we only ask one thing… that you listen and get ready to move your asses and jump to every heartfelt beat we scream at you…
“They are the best and most fucking mental band I’ve ever seen live” Shiner - SIRENS
“How the hell does Mike sing and scream like that, that’s Amazing!!” Rob - As Silence Falls
“Just what’s been missing from the Music Industry” Hannah Lewis – Afan FM
