The Make-Up

Don't Miss
After officially reuniting in 2012, Washington, DC–based post-punk outfit the Make-Up are embarking on a tour across the country. Having released four albums in the 1990s, their music is a curious blend of gospel, garage, and yé-yé pop genres that all somehow jell together to create raucous, joyous music. Whether it’s parsing through desire by talking about which shape they are in “I Am Pentagon,” or offering up hysterically rambling paranoid theories about “them” in “They Live By Night,” the Make-Up are unlike any other band out there. They are also known for wild and energetic live performances, so go and be prepared to move!
