(Make
It Better Later)
Make It Better Later were formed in November
2005, the first thing they did was book a
gig two weeks later.
This caused a panic and so a set's worth of
songs were hastily written and rehearsed,
before MIBL’s sound was unleashed on
an unsuspected small crowd in the Ringside
in Hull. From there the band didn’t
stop working, gigs we’re booked across
the north of the country in Manchester, Leeds
and many other places (including, of course,
their home town of York).
A month after forming (yes, two weeks after
the first gig!) MIBL recorded their first
EP Coaster. The whole process took two days,
from the first note to the final master being
burnt onto CD. The band has always had a strong
DIY ethic and so spent time burning CDs and
copying artwork themselves and securing a
digital distribution deal for Coaster via
iTunes.
When recording Coaster, some synth violin
was added to the infamous Pirate Song and
due to the popularity of the song live, the
band decided to recruit a violin player to
recreate the sound. Rosie was drafted in for
a few gigs but unfortunately had degree commitments
to attend to and so recommended Amy as a replacement.
Immediately the band gained musical credibility
as Amy (a ‘proper musician’) joined
them. From there the violin started to become
an integral part of the foursome’s song
writing and live sound.
In the Summer of 2006 MIBL set out on their
first self organised and booked UK tour with
friends Masenko, before bunkering down into
a proper recording studio to record their
debut album. The album was recorded and produced
by the band themselves, although this time
much care and effort was spent on the process,
to produce a sound a thousand times better
than the first EP.
This brings us up to the present day, the
album has been mastered and some people have
heard it already, the first single will be
released in March 2007 on the band’s
own label and via iTunes, so stay tuned…
