   About Amy Atkinson & Midnight Special
Amy Atkinson & Midnight Special are a talented young trio whose unique style brings together an eclectic mix of folk, blues, jazz, swing and rockabilly plus a developing collection of their own self-penned material.

Brought up on the traditional folk & acoustic music scene they came together as a band in 2005.

Having been embraced by fans and critics alike, their debut album ‘Arriving…’ demonstrates their ability to interpret old classics such as I Saw the Light and Down and out Blues whilst brilliantly showcases the song writing talents of bandleader Amy Atkinson.

Amy Atkinson & Midnight Special are becoming increasingly popular on the folk & acoustic music scene, generating a buzz whenever they perform.

“Amy Atkinson & Midnight Special are an abundantly talented young trio who have produced a debut CD which definitely places them in the ‘must-see’ category. What sets them apart from the plethora of new young bands on the folk scene is their unusual repertoire and their genuine feel for ‘industrial’ songs.” - Netrhythms 2008

They are available now for Clubs, Concerts, Festivals and Private Functions.
