Make Do and Mend have announced they’ll release their new album On Going later this year.

Over the past year or so, we started to bat around what being creative together again might look like. We began sharing ideas, which led to a collection of new songs that will make up the fourth Make Do and Mend album. We humbly regard it as our best.

We’ll have more to share soon about when and how this new album will find its way to you. For now, we’ll let you know, the album is called On Going.
