Midnight Burst - A Mazy Night (2024)

It was in 2017, after many years of musical adventures, that Nikk Giggs (vocals/guitar) and Stan Blaineau (bass/backing vocals) decided to reconnect with their first loves: the Blues and Rock of the 60s-70s. They quickly contacted Nicolas Mermoud (drums/backing vocals) and formed MIDNIGHT BURST. Regularly accompanied by harmonica player Vincent Dupuis in concert and in the studio, he becomes the “official guest” of the group.

The group took advantage of the general cessation of concerts in 2020 to compose their first songs. They released two singles in 2021: Didn't Wake Up This Morning and The Maze.

In 2022, life resumes its course, and MIDNIGHT BURST combines the intensive resumption of concerts with the continuation of the recording of the first album.

At the same time, they are investing in YouTube by producing around a hundred videos with more than 250,000 views, notably with the participation of Tanguy Kerleroux, Nym Rhosilir, Arthur Dart…

During the writing of the album, they were winners of the Grosses Guitares and Blues springboards in Jarnioux, and opened for Charlélie Couture, Jessie Lee & The Alchemists, Mister Mat, Riff Wave (Tanguy Kerleroux), 58 Shots.

Today, after more than 200 concerts, successful Crowdfunding and with the help of their partners (Savarez, Vikory Drumsticks, Heats, Lutherie Letourneau, Afozic booking), the group is preparing the release of its first album A Mazy Night with Popa Chubby and Fred Chapellier as guests.

A Mazy Night is released by Rock'n'Hall on the famous DixieFrog label.
