About The MAKs
Website | Facebook | Instagram | YouTube | Spotify
When Melissa Menago, the frontwoman and guitarist of Philly power pop band June Divided released her self-produced solo album, Echo The Optimist, she strategically chose Karina
Patricelli and Angelique Zuppo for the live performances. They all knew one another as performers but also fellow music teachers who quite often shared notes and ideas on the local music scene in Philadelphia. Karina is the frontwoman and bassist of the pop punk band, Valendina, and Angelique fronted her own project Zuppang. However, Melissa had no idea she had assembled the supergroup that would become known as The MAKs.
The MAKs played their first show in December 2024 and quickly realized they had tapped into something special. They quickly gained the attention of media and radio stations. Within six
months of their first show The MAKs were named one of the four finalists of WXPN’s 24 Hour Song Challenge and nominated for three Hometown Hero Homey Awards (Delaware Public Media): “Song Of The Year” “Best Folk Song” and “Best New Artist”.
