Crash Midnight rocks Ohio opening for The Pretty Reckless. Contributed by Tara Williams

November 4, 2014

Crash Midnight may not be a household name YET! Brace yourselves…It’s coming! Their name will be on the tip of your tongue very soon. The band aptly got it’s name in true rock ‘n roll fashion. Front man Shaun Soho got a late night call from his brother Bo telling him he had a great name for a band, Crash Midnight. Followed by him asking for a late night ride since he had just wrecked his car. This five piece band hails from Boston & have been together for 10 years. They are a monster lab creation of combining the sounds of Axl Rose, Mick Jagger, & New York Dolls. A little blues, a little punk, & a LOT of real old school Rock ‘N Roll! I had the pleasure of catching their show at the Newport in Columbus, OH. The band’s debut album “Lost In The City” is just around the corner with a release date of November 18th. It was pushed back until they are finished touring with Adelita’s Way & The Pretty [Read More]

The album’s first single started off as a tongue in cheek track, 151 about the notorious high proof alcohol. Vocalist, Shaun Soho, comments on the song, “It was originally kind of a tongue in cheek party song that ended up taking on a life of its own and becoming one of our most requested songs live so we ended up going back and putting a lot of work into making it into a real song.” Check out the video for 151 here: Band Members: Shaun Soho – Lead vocals Bo – Bass Tony Pizzo- Guitar Andrew Merkle – Drums Alex [Read More]
