"With the same deft ear for melody as Mike Patton, and the sea shanty-like rhythms of The Mighty Mighty Bosstones early work - these boys are onto a winner!"

Make It Better Later are a 4 piece band. They try not to pick any particular style to play to, but if forced to pigeon-hole
themselves they'd say they play a blend of folk-pop and reggae-rock.
Since the band's first gig in a dingy bar in Hull they have supported several of their childhood heroes (Neville Staple from
the Specials, Wheatus, Ash, [Spunge], The Toasters) as well as a whole variety of artists and bands (Seth Lakeman, The King Blues,
Sonic Boom Six, MC Lars and many more).
Their first single was picked up personally by Phil Jupitus for his show on BBC 6 Music and the band has been written about by
Rocksound, NME, Big Cheese, Manchester Evening News and a whole load more.
The band's latest EP '2' is available on their own label Periphony Records at specialist record shops around the UK and
internationally on iTunes.

Hi, cheers, yeah I was getting a little worried! I can't wait to get the cds, I love the songs on your myspace. I play in a band called Los Salvadores based in Kent. We're gigging several times a week at the moment it's really really cool! We haven't got anything recorded with violin yet, but in a few weeks when we do have I'll let you know!
Heya Aaron, Hows things? Yes I will most definitely be at the Camden show tomorrow night, quite a good pub I believe! Looking forward to it :) See you there!!
Ah, good to hear from you Aaron! Stuffs all going good, just trying to book gigs, it's all very exciting for me :P Hows the new album coming along? Timpani + Glockenspiel + Oboe + Gong sounds like WIN to me!
Need any support for your late July gigs in Huddersfield/Manchester/Leceister? I think we'd be able to play any of those 3 if you're feeling kind enough to let us come along!
