Crash Midnight was “Born on the streets of Boston” states Shaun and Alex. They have been together since the mid 2000’s. They say the band was created out of a late-night car wreck. “We faced about every obstacle a band could possibly face to get here today”, says Shaun. “For the passed 10 years,” adds Alex. They started out writing songs that they were passionate about and what they liked to play. Shaun said “It turned out it happens to be what a lot of people want to hear.” All their songs are from personal experience and it definitely shows on stage. Their single “151” was developed after some late night partying with a bottle of Bacardi 151, hence the name.
