About
the makings
We are The Makings... A powerful, soulful & electrifying 7 piece band from Bristol. Our message is clear. Life is tough, and whilst we’re around our friends let's dance, sing & deeply enjoy the time we have with the ones around us.
We deal in big brash soulful sounds. Coming from searing horn lines, 3 part harmonies, Synth & Guitar solo's & a rhythm section that makes Fort Knox look like a walk in centre. TOIGHT. Imagine a Heavier, Dancier modern sounding Fleetwood Mac. We even serve food and Wine whilst playing !!
Our set is a show, that we have crafted over the last 2 years that really brings something new to the live music scene. We are proud of our sound and our captivating performance, we can't wait for you to join us.
