We had a fantastic time shooting this video as you can see from the evidence below.

Devil in a Dream Part I - Music Video

We felt the need to creep you out a little bit before we film our music video for Devil in a Dream Part II.

So here is Devil in a Dream

This is a song we recorded on a handheld recorder on the third floor of my parent’s house back in the early aughts. We could never seem to capture the magic of the off-the-cuff version so we decided to put that version out on our second album Funeral Genius as the last track.

The Roots Music Report's Top Blues Rock Album Chart for 2021 & 2022

Our album, Fancy Hercules is on The Roots Music Report’s Top Blues Rock Album Chart for 2021 and for 2022!

We’re climbing the charts!!!! We’re ahead of ZZ Top & Melissa Etheridge. Pretty cool for an indie band!

Fantastic Review of I'm Alright on Music Existence

We received a fantastic review of our song I’m Alright on Music Existence:

It’s hard to pick a fav section in this review. But we think it’s this:

“Knowing that they have the street credit, the indie rock darlings of the world, I rooted for Makar’s overall essence. It’s like walking into a vintage store, all the yellows, the greens, the rust colors – and feeling an overwhelming sense of sunshine and love. They somehow embody this punk world but let in shards of light and optimism. If they were a periodical, Makar would be the homemade kind you used to grab on your way out of the downtown record stores. Someone took the time to make a run to Kinkos and make those music rags.”

A little sampling of their review below:

“With a toe-tapping beat and head-bopping melodic arrangement, Makar wraps you in a kaleidoscopic blanket floating in a cinematic soundscape.”
