To go on our first tour over here with Hot Water Music has been a dream come true. The shows have been really incredible and we couldn&#8217;t have asked for a better tour.<\/p>\n<p><strong>End Measured Mile is your first full length release and has been out now for a little while, but will be getting an official Aussie release in a few weeks.\u00a0 It seems like the album has been incredibly well received so far, has the reaction to it taken you guys by surprise at all?<br \/>\n<\/strong>A little bit, I think it always does you know.\u00a0 We are a relatively new band and every time we release something, I guess every band has that sense of doubt right before you release a new record.\u00a0 You think you made a good record, you believe in it, but then right before you release it you&#8217;ll be like, maybe this sucks and people aren&#8217;t going to like it.\u00a0 So there&#8217;s always that surprise when people like it and that sense of relief and happiness that people are digging what you have a tonne of work into.<\/p>\n<p><strong>In Australia, the CD will be released by 3Wise Records, how did this association come about?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I think it went hand in hand a little bit.\u00a0 We wanted to release our record in Australia because we knew we were coming over and obviously a place we have wanted to go to for a super long time, so it was a logical step for us in terms of putting out the record in Australia.<\/p>\n<p><strong>You guys have existed since around 2005 and whilst you have had a couple of EP releases, this is your first full length album.\u00a0 Was this something you were controlling whilst you were defining yourselves as a band, or was it more circumstances and finding an avenue to release your material?<br \/>\n<\/strong>When we first started, the band was a little more of a part time thing for us.\u00a0 Some of us were still in school and doing other things, so for that time and place, EP&#8217;s were what made sense.\u00a0 We wrote a small group of songs and we would be like, ok let&#8217;s go and record these songs and put out an EP.\u00a0 As the band continued on and became more serious, we were thinking more about needing to make a full length record.\u00a0 If we wanted to be a real band, we needed to make a full length.\u00a0 It was all a natural and logical progression for us, we made 2 EP&#8217;s and after that, you can&#8217;t really keep releasing EP&#8217;s.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Now I was reading that you guys all still work full time, with the greater interest in the band now, how have you balancing the touring commitments and full time work?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Up until recently, yes that was still the case.\u00a0 I would say around March, all of is were still working full time when we were at home.\u00a0 Then this spring we all got together and said we can&#8217;t do this anymore.\u00a0 We can&#8217;t go on tour for a few months, then come home for a month and then try and find a job.\u00a0 Luckily we were in the position where even though it&#8217;s not the most well paying job, we can make this our full time thing.\u00a0 Definitely it&#8217;s an exciting time for me, as since I was a kid I loved music and wanted to be in a band, so it&#8217;s cool now to be able to say, &#8220;I play in a band, that&#8217;s what I do, nothing else&#8221;.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The album is titled End Measured Mile, what inspired you to choose this as the title?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Well a few different things.\u00a0 In life and in music especially, people tend look at it as a kind of an arms race.\u00a0 People have a tough time always sizing themselves up to somebody else, &#8220;we aren&#8217;t as handsome as this band&#8221;, &#8220;we don&#8217;t make as good as music as this band&#8221; that attitude kind of always dragged us down and we were never really into that.\u00a0 So End Measured Mile is kind of a thought of not sizing yourself up to other people but to do the best that you possibly can and that always works.\u00a0 Be yourself and don&#8217;t look at other people and don&#8217;t think they are doing better than you.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Does this mentality also flow through into James\u2019s song writing?<br \/>\n<\/strong>I am sure it does.\u00a0 I don&#8217;t write the lyrics myself but my brother James does so I feel very close to the lyrics.\u00a0 I think that attitude directly affects the way that he writes.\u00a0 If he doesn&#8217;t write specifically, then that attitude seeps through into the lyrics.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What of the song writing in the band, how is that handled?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Well James is the one that writes all the lyrics.\u00a0 Musically however we are a very collaborative band.\u00a0 Literally every one of us writes music, whether it be a chorus or a riff we will bring it to practice and go from there.\u00a0 At no point in the bands history and I can&#8217;t see it ever happening, has someone come with a full song and that song has stayed exactly the way that it was written, so yes we are very collaborative in that sense.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How long did you spend on the process for writing and recording the new album?\u00a0 Would you describe yourselves as perfectionists when it comes to the studio?<br \/>\n<\/strong>It depends on what people might consider a lengthy process, but we took a month.\u00a0 For some bands that&#8217;s a long time or some a short time for a full length record.\u00a0 We took the least amount of time we could gave possibly done it in. We are a very particular studio band and when we are in the studio we often freak out about little things and it can take us a long time as we don&#8217;t want to go in and just record a record, we want to make a record.\u00a0 We don&#8217;t just have the engineer press record, we are very hands on and make sure that everything is perfect and as well thought out as possible.\u00a0 So in that case we may take longer than some bands. We literally headed out on tour the day after we finished recording, so that was kind of the timetable we set.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Hopefully we will get to see for ourselves in September if you guys are still coming out, but how would you describe yourselves as a live band?<br \/>\n<\/strong>When we hit the stage we want it to be very energetic from start to finish.\u00a0 We like to be aggressive and energetic and for the kids to sing along and get involved.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I assume you have been playing some of the new songs in your live set, how have they settled into the set list?<br \/>\n<\/strong>For sure, I love playing the new songs.\u00a0 We basically let the new songs take over the set list because the kids are into the new record and want to hear the new songs.\u00a0 So hopefully we will never be a band where the kids just want to hear the old stuff haha!\u00a0 So it&#8217;s cool to be able to play shows and the songs we want to play and the crowd be happy with that.<\/p>\n<p><strong>So where are you guys actually based?<br \/>\n<\/strong>We are based now in Boston, Massachusetts, but we grew up in Connecticut.\u00a0 A few of us had gravitated to Boston for school and stuff, so we eventually decided to just base ourselves there and set up a cool home base for the band.<\/p>\n<p><strong>How about the music scene in Boston these days, is it a healthy scene for you guys specifically, or not really?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Sure, depends what aspect you are looking at it, some aspects are very healthy, but the all ages scene is not very healthy in Boston, which is what we grew up surviving in.\u00a0 We really like playing those underage shows and to play those 18+ shows is not our ideal situation.\u00a0 But if you want to play in Boston, unfortunately that&#8217;s what we have to do. The punk rock scene and rock n roll scene, it&#8217;s healthy.\u00a0 In any city we have a bunch of young people that like going to shows and being part of it.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What else is planned for the remainder of 2011, are there touring plans still to be announced?<br \/>\n<\/strong>Yes pretty much and with the uncertainty over Soundwave it&#8217;s a bit of a blow as we definitely want to come to Australia, but in this calendar year I couldn&#8217;t see it happening as our tour schedule is just so tight.\u00a0 We are booked up until the end of the year and then after that we are going to start on the next record, which is exciting!<\/p>\n<h2><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Essential Information<\/span><\/h2>\n<p><strong>From:<\/strong> USA<\/p>\n<p><strong>Sounds like:<\/strong> Punk rock<\/p>\n<p><strong>Band members:<\/strong> Mike O &#8211; Guitar, James C &#8211; Guitar and Vocals, Mikey P- Bass, Matt C &#8211; Drums<\/p>\n<p><strong>Website:<\/strong> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.makedoandmend.me\">www.makedoandmend.me<\/a><\/p>\n<p><strong>Latest release:<\/strong> End Measured Mile (2011, 3Wise Records\/Sony Music Australia)<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>You can catch Make Do And Mend on the following Counter Revolution dates:<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>SATURDAY 24 &#8211; BRISBANE, THE RIVERSTAGE<\/p>\n<p>SUNDAY 25 &#8211; SYDNEY, BIG TOP LUNA PARK<\/p>\n<p>FRIDAY 30\u00a0 &#8211; MELBOURNE, FESTIVAL HALL<\/p>\n<p>SUNDAY 2\u00a0 &#8211; ADELAIDE, JUBILEE PAVILION, SHOWGROUNDS<\/p>\n<p>MONDAY 3 &#8211; PERTH, CHALLENGE STADIUM<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Counter-Revolution.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-170 alignleft\" title=\"Counter Revolution\" src=\"http:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Counter-Revolution-212x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"212\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Counter-Revolution-212x300.png 212w, https:\/\/maytherockbewithyou.com\/mtrbwy\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/09\/Counter-Revolution.png 424w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 212px) 100vw, 212px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;Definitely it&#8217;s an exciting time for me, as since I was a kid I loved music and wanted to be in a band, so it&#8217;s cool now to be able to say, &#8220;I play in a band, that&#8217;s what I do, nothing else&#8221;.\u00a0 For Boston based Make Do And Mend, August 26th marks the official release date of their debut [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":277,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6,5,4],"tags":[146,147,145,144],"class_list":["post-276","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-6","category-features","category-interviews","tag-3wise-records","tag-counter-revolution","tag-end-measured-mile","tag-make-do-and-mend"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
