FOR YOUR EARS ONLY: Make Out

WHO: Leah Hennessey, Jesper Mortensen, Anders C., Olivia Alminiana

HOMETOWN: New York, New York

GENRE: Indie/Punk

LATEST RELEASE: How To EP (2010)

WHY YOU’LL LOVE THEM: Some would be quick to judge the New York outfit, mentioning them in the same breath as certain pop starlets trying to be “edgy”, but MAKE OUT are indeed punk to the bone. Stemming from the destruction of Danish poppers Junior Senior, the band blends Jesper Mortensen’s multiple talents with singer Leah Hennessey’s ferocity, producing a likable sound with no intentions of staying out of your face. Don’t approve of the attitude? Blame it on Hennessey’s bloodline (her stepfather is the vocalist for New York Dolls).

SOUNDS LIKE: Rebellious kids high off sugar and hormones.
