Exactly Midnight started when one man purchased himself a keyboard, and knew his destiny was to become a megastar, impressing the world with keyboard solos and beautiful ballads.
Then he realised all he could play was Seven Nation Army.
Flash forward three years later, and this man was performing live music under the alias "Exactly Midnight". However, the shows were a mix of stand-up comedy and live melodic ballads. He faced a tough decision... to keep going with the serious emotional songs, or to continue with the comedic songs and parodies?
After a pancake, he decided to do both.
And this is the end result.
After numerous gigs in my living room, the music ventured off into towns like Sleaford and Grantham. The most fun gig was at a chrity event called Golden Ticket, where my comedic acoustic music was sandwiched in between two punk acts. Audience members walked off! Oh, the joy...
