BIOGRAPHY

We aim to deliver the most high energy party vibe – please collect at your nearest venue, and apply DIRECTLY TO YOUR FACE.

Made For Broadway, or MFB for short, is a four-piece mobile pop-punk party that has served the greater Gauteng area since early 2014 with ultra-high energy shows. Characterised by catchy pop melodies and anthemic lyrics, these are what drive the band’s massive appeal when they take the stage – and it shows in the groundswell of support for them from local crowds.

In 2014, the band came out swinging with two EPs and local tours in the first 10 months of their existence – quickly earning favour with local bookers and photographers for their wild stage shows. Not ones to shy away from going big, the band self-produced their debut full-length album, Life Lessons, and put it on a DIY tour, taking them to California USA – performing the songs for the first time ever at the famous Whisky A Go Go, among many other local favourite spots, earning them a standing invitation to play at the Viper Room and several other well-known venues from Hollywood-local booking agents.

Returning to perform on the main stage at Oppikoppi Festival 2015, and supporting Tweak on their reunion tour, Made For Broadway only gained momentum, even while taking a brief period to assess themselves after the tour. The band took everything they learned from LA and put it to work – with a growing fan base of over 27000 people across multiple social networks, the band hopes to prove themselves when the album launches online in February 2016.

With a strong focus on gaining international recognition, Made For Broadway constantly work to levelup their live performance and songwriting, and have already begun working on album number two, and follow-up USA tours.

Holding a work ethic second to none, the band hopes to surround themselves with like-minded people – management, labels, and sponsors – who share their passion and enthusiasm for music and constantly pushing to be bigger and better.
