Homegrown Thursday: Midnight Snack


Thursday December 1, 2016 @ 8:00 PM




41 Bridge Street presents MIDNIGHT SNACK as part of our Homegrown Thursdays on December 1st, 2016 at 8 pm. With opening acts Mother Moses and Ellen Siberian Tiger.

Immediately following graduation from college in Boston, the five members of art-pop band, Midnight Snack, hit the road in 2014 for an autumn of touring. With them, they took the additional goal of finding a place to call home given their new freedom, and by the spring of 2015 the group had moved to Asheville, NC. They’ve since settled into a shared house, constructed a studio, and most recently have completed work on their newest album. "Child’s Eyes" is the third full-length from the project started by brothers Jack Victor (vocals, drums) and Mike Henry Johnson (guitar/synth) before their enrollment in college. Through the addition of classmates Peter Brownlee (bass) and Zack Kardon (guitar), as well as old friend Katie Richter (vocals, trumpet), Midnight Snack have developed a varied and eclectic sound, this latest offering the most personal and introspective of their lengthy discography. Lead single, Magic, showcases a more soulful side to the group’s varied influences, fusing the intimacy of a Sufjan Stevens soundscape with the playfulness of Talking Heads. Victor takes a commonly autobiographical approach with his lyrics and the band supports his sentiments through a tasteful arrangement. Magic exemplifies Midnight Snack’s effectiveness as a team and paves an exciting path for what’s to follow.
