The trifecta that founder Scotty Stoughton and his team have created over the past seven years is not only tremendously impressive but is also a blessing for bluegrass and string music fans across the nation. Stoughton and crew are also the faces behind Campout for the Cause, and though they’re not strangers on how to carefully curate a near-perfect festival, the WinterWonderGrasses are officially in a league of their own.†– 303 MAGAZINE https://squawalpine.com/events-things-do/winterwondergrass-tahoe About Midnight North; It’s full steam ahead for Midnight North after an exciting year featuring major festival plays, a nationwide tour, and the release of a second live record. Midnight North headlined tours and played in support of heavy-hitters such as Grammy winners The Infamous Stringdusters. Rolling Stone hailed Midnight North as the “Best New Act†in its review of 2018’s Peach Music Festival saying the band “takes the best parts of roots music and weaves them into a tapestry of rock and Americanaâ€. And the best is still to come. In the summer of 2018, Midnight North released their second live record, Selections from the Great American Music Hall. This 8 track album features original live staples like “Everyday†and “Playing a Poor Hand Wellâ€, covers like John Prine’s “Angel from Montgomery†and the Dead’s “The Music Never Stoppedâ€. The concert album also features guest appearances by Bob Weir, Phil Lesh, members of Twiddle, and the band's hometown horn section, The Northbound Horns. Immediately after their sophomore studio release, 2015’s Scarlet Skies, Midnight North - fronted by lead songwriters Elliott Peck & Grahame Lesh with lush Hammond B3 organ, and harmony work from Alex Jordan, and strong rhythm section work from bass player Connor O’Sullivan and drummer Nathan Graham - began touring the country in earnest, visiting the East Coast and the Midwest for the first time in Summer 2015. The band wrote the majority of 2017’s Under the Lights in the following months, and the lyrical road themes - the initial excitement, the longing for home, and the inherent need to keep moving - shine through. “Under the Lights is the perfect title for this collection of songs,†said O’Sullivan. “These songs and lyrics are about being a band of musicians on the road away from home. Songs literally performed and tested under the lights at countless venues across the US.†2019 and beyond will continue the growth for Midnight North, as the expanding discography and consistent national touring help pave the way for more and more fans to discover the band. “These songs tell our story, at least up to this point,†said Lesh. “Our job is to sing you these stories as honestly as we can and transport you into our world for an hour or two.†Midnight North is; Grahame Lesh - Guitar/Vocals Elliott Peck - Guitar/Keyboards/Vocals Alex Jordan - Keyboards/Vocals Connor O'Sullivan - Basses and Mandolin Nathan Graham - Drums and Percussion Jeremy Hoenig - Percussion (Tracorum) Please support musicians that are open to having their live shows recorded and shared by attending their performances and purchasing officially released recordings and other merchandise. https://www.facebook.com/MidnightNorth/ http://midnightnorth.com/ https://midnightnorth.bandcamp.com/ http://www.jeremyhoenig.com/
