melding rock, blues, boogie, country, and embryonically tuned vocals into a metaphoric music blender, billy midnight will seize your imagination with their good-natured americana groove.
founded in 1999 by the shaddox brothers (billy and bobby), they recently acquired ex-rookie card, buzzkill romantics maestro, jason hee on bass and keys. coming out of a two year hiatus after billy received a traumatic head injury while on tour in oregon, the boys are back in action. billy midnight returns fully restored with a san diego music awards nomination for "best americana/country" and their latest full length album. recorded in hee's studio near downtown san diego, "don't get your hopes up" cultivates some of billy's finest songwriting into the band's most eclectic and adventurous recordings to date.
billy midnight continues to entertain and inspire with their diverse and passionate live shows. their electrifying performances tap country two-step jams, nashville funk, california harmonies, space-age riffs, blistering telecaster leads, and a healthy dose of unrestrained enthusiasm. local appearances and west coast tours attest to the trio's musical stamina; not even last call can stop billy midnight.
