Midnight Spin formed below the streets of Brooklyn in 2008, writing and performing music as powerful and commanding as the roaring JMZ trains and chaotic neighborhood blocks that bustle just above their basement rehearsal space. The following summer, the group released their debut EP to a sellout crowd at Manhattan's famed Mercury Lounge and toured extensively behind it, introducing audiences to a new incarnation of passionate guitar-based alternative rock. While their raucous showmanship and tight performances saw them named one of the 10 Must-See Bands at the annual CMJ Festival, the instant success of their Through the Mojo Wire EP earned Midnight Spin the 2010 Independent Music Award for Best Rock Song.

The group recently finished recording their debut LP, Don't Let Me Sleep, with acclaimed Producer/Engineer Justin Gerrish (Vampire Weekend, The Strokes). The album showcases the five members of the band at their best, distilling immediately melodic, to-the-point songwriting throughout the course of twelve songs, while displaying inspired ambition and comfort playing at both ends of the volume spectrum. With the release planned for early 2013, this album will break down your door and sleep on your couch.
