Do Make Say Think is an instrumental group from Toronto, Ontario. The band formed in the 1990s as a recording project for one of the members’ sound engineering classes in college. Their first rehearsals took place in an empty schoolroom where four basic verbs — Do, Make, Say and Think — adorned the walls. The group subsequently adopted the words as a name. Their music combines jazz-style drums with electric bass, synthesizers, electric guitars, wind instruments, and electronic effects.
Do Make Say Think consists of Ohad Benchetrit (guitar, bass, saxophone and flute), David Mitchell (drums), James Payment (drums), Justin Small (guitar) and Charles Spearin (bass, guitar and trumpet). Jason Mackenzie (keyboards and effects) departed after the first album. Justin Small is also involved in a side project entitled Lullabye Arkestra, as a drummer with his partner, bassist Katia Taylor. They have been produced by Benchetrit, who — along with Spearin — records and tours with the Toronto supergroup Broken Social Scene.
Do Make Say Think are routinely joined onstage by Brian Cram, who performs with James Payment in a metal band called Gesundheit.
Spearin, Mitchell and Benchetrit recorded an album together in 1997 under the moniker Microgroove.
The song “Chinatown” from 2002’s & Yet & Yet is featured in the movie Syriana, starring George Clooney, as well as The Corporation.

Pretty lame turnout at Bowery in NYC - are instrumental bands unpopular or is it because it's a Dunday night? Probably both

i'll never forget listening to CBC'c Brave New Wave's 10 years ago and hearing a live recording of Do Make Say Think. It was frickin' awesome. the new record kind of revisits the early days of the band.

#1,2,4 and 6 most played tracks spell out the band's name. I think this is worth taking note of.
