Make-Up

Written by Patrick McNamara
The Make-Up were a post gospel punk band from Washington D.C.
Ian Svenonius was the frontman (Nation of Ulysses / Chain and the Gang / 100 other things)
James Canty was on guitar / keys (Nation of Ulysses / Ted Leo and the Pharmacists)
Steve Gamboa did the drums (Nation of Ulysses)
Michelle Mae played bass (Weird War)
The band released four albums (Dischord / K Records) in four years (1996 / 1997 / 1998 / 1999) and played a bunch of audience-participatory shows that were pretty nuts.
The last time they played NYC was in 2012 A.D.
And now they're back.... for a few shows anyway.
Gonna be nuts.
