Midnight Shift
"Rhythm Rockin' Boogie"

News, Reviews & Links

Midnight Shift's Rhythm Rockin' Boogie is a record steeped in the 1950's Chicago tradition, filled with tongue in-cheek songwriting and hot guitar/harmonica exchange-recalling a similar winning formula that Little Charlie and the Nightcats mined to perfection for years.  The band's crafty melodies, effortless rhythms and razor sharp wit help define a record that buzzes with vintage Chicago cool.  Mark Uricheck/Living Blues Magazine


If there was ever a CD you bought just on my recommendation let it be this one.  Peter "Blewzzman" Lauro/Mary4Music


Wow!  I was blown off my seat when I listened to this CD!  This is one of those rare collections of music where you want to put on your dancing shoes and let it all hang out!  I give this Two Thumbs Up!!  Michael Mckenna/PA Music Scene


Rhythm Rockin' Boogie is another stellar set from Midnight Shift and hopefully one that will allow them to expand beyond that Lehigh Valley region.  The closing instrumental, "Back Off" gives Mettalia a chance to blow the back off his harmonica.  Graham Clarke/ Blues Bytes


Slap it on and Party!  Marc Bristol/Blue Suede News


The largely band penned-penned tunes infuse the best elements of rockabilly, rock and blues that would keep any dance floor bopping until it drops.  Fans of an upbeat good time can't go wrong with working this "Midnight Shift".   Greg Szalony/Blues Blast Magazine.

 


It's been five years since Midnight Shift's inaugural CD and the wait was well worth it.  All in all this is a fabulous effort of which the band can be proud of.  Scott Davis/Lehigh Valley Blues Network


The harmonica teamwork by Guyger and Mettalia is nothing short of mesmerizing.  The harpwork alone is enough to buy the disc, but the playing overall is flawless, the arrangements are superb and the disc is nothing short of top notch.   Bill Wilson/Billtown Blues Association


With Rhythm Rockin' Boogie The Midnight Shift has upped it's productivity of songs filling this disc and taken the quality to world class levels.  You can't outsource blues like this.  Roger and Margaret White/Big City Rhythm and Blues Magazine.Mike Mettalia
