The Makeshifts are a new band formed in Connecticut, consisting of Brendan J. Brust, Kyle DeTullio, and Tom Reinman. They've taken up activities in self-producing and recording, as well as beginning to branch out in their live performances.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
