We are makeshift hammer, From Crediton (nr Exeter in Devon). We don't really know any farmers so, mock away. we don't care. We are all into different kinds of music but melding these influences into something really really strange! We are a five piece rock(ish) group. (From left to right in pic) Dave......Guitar Caragh...Drums Fill......Guitar/vocals Bim.......Bass Jack......Other
Band/artist history
Well, makeshift hammer has been on the cards for years now and it took me getting bim into gear to get us started. we inlisted the help of our friend Dave on guitar and before too long Bim had found us the multi-talented caragh on drums (who was and is learning drums with Bims dad, Tony of the wax room. Myself and Bim have been thick as thieves since time began and Dave we have known for some years now. Bim has known Caragh for a great deal longer than either me or Dave but, I think thats good as it throws new blood into the jaws of the HAMMER!!!!! Fill (the hammer spokesman)
