Song of the Day - Sept 6, 2005

The Makers were ahead of their time and a look back to the past. They had their start in 91, back in Spokane. Their music is strongly influenced by the likes of The Stooges and is a precursor to the popular garage style bands of today, such as The White Stripes, Hives, and other garage dwelling groups of musicians. This is great rock and roll! The songs, for the most part, are songs that The Makers had recorded before, but they actually did the songs over for the album Stripped. Check out their song "Sharp Leather Walkin' Shoes." Click here to listen.
