Influences
The music of "only makebelieve" is a very polished sound pulling from a style of fullness seen in the 1960's and 70's but with modern appeal. They have established themselves as songwriters capable of recording complex arrangements but with commercial quality gaining listeners of all ages.
A truly imaginative and decidedly interesting musical journey, well, well-worth your aural investigation!

'only makebelieve' is an Alternative Rock band based in Ohio. Founding members Wyatt Michael and Samuel Atkinson started a band in 1989 both at a very young age. Later, experimenting in several really bad recording studios, they recorded three small demos and since developed a very strong songwriting style. They put the experience to work and built their own recording studio and over a period of 8 years they recorded and produced a work that stands out above the rest. 'only makebelieve' are now performing live shows throughout 2008 to support their new debut masterpiece album: "Message From A Mockingbird"
