The Captain Midnight Band creates “Waterbed Rock ‘N’ Roll” for the mind, booty, and soul. Crunchy Rock Guitars, Funky R&B Grooves, and Soaring Vocal Harmonies combine with Space-Age aesthetics to create a truly original, otherworldly Audio-Visual experience.
Midnight’s vast catalog of originals and cover tunes are performed expertly by the top-notch rhythm section of Stephen Hopkins (bass) and Andy Wilmoth (drums). Sexy space strumpets, The Cosmic Trollops provide the proverbial icing on the cake with their amazing vocal gymnastics and synthesizer prowess. These elements combined with Midnight’s obscene guitar work and suggestive lyrics, culminate in a futuristic Rock ‘N’ Roll Dance Party that is not to be missed.
With the release of the full-length album, “Chamber of Thrills!!”, Midnight and company are poised to breathe new life into the misplaced art of performance-oriented Rock music, while shaping strong, classic elements into fun, unique sights and sounds.

Hello Captain Midnight Band Thank you for being a positive force in this world. Music is one of the few things left that still has the POWER to bring people from different cultures together in harmony. Always feel free to contact me.
Hey guys. You sounded absolutely amazing the other night at the 5 Spot. That was the first time that I had heard the band and I was blown away. Excellent!!! I can't wait to hear you again in the near future. Keep Rockin'.
