About this Event
UPDATE at 30 Nov 21 : As much as The Midnight Mares were looking forward to playing the stage at the beloved Grace Emily Hotel, unforeseen circumstances have prompted a change of venue. Our thoughts are with the pub - and we will be back to support them as soon as they re-open. The show is still going ahead, now at Hellbound Winebar on Rundle St - where the band shot a clip for "Happy Hour". Ticket-holders will be contacted directly with more details, but the show is now sold out.
------------------------
The Midnight Mares are excited to host one last live hurrah for their debut year, with an Xmas Show in the the intimate surrounds of the Grace Emily Hotel.
Featuring favourite tracks from their eponymous LP ( - sonic.vandals), the band will also be performing a brand new, unreleased song!
It's been a great year for The Midnight Mares, with their LP debuting at #1 on the Three D Radio charts where it spent several weeks in the top spot, along with the release of 3 video clips including the award-nominated "Endless Nights of Rock and Roll".
Now it's farewell to 2021 and eyes on a future that will surely be filled with new adventures.
The afternoon show opens with award winning Fijian songstress Elena accompanied by guitar virtuoso Aidan Cibich (Echoes in Eternity). Her powerhouse vocals have made her a literal superstar in her home country and he’s an absolute wizard on the 6 string, so get ready for an incredible set!

“The Midnight Mares have poured their cumulative song writing and musical experience into a brilliant batch of songs and created a sound descended from Australian acts like the Bad Seeds, Triffids, Died Pretty. There’s strong influence from British acts such as The Smiths and The Cure and some Americana thrown in too - a song like ‘Be Still’ would have suited Johnny Cash in his later years.... [It's] an engaging album precisely because the cinematic music perfectly matches the poetic lyrics." - sonic.vandals

THE MIDNIGHT MARES
Cinematic | Melodic | Epic
The Midnight Mares believe in the magic of music, creating songs that can be both deceptively simple and mysteriously elusive.
A narrative of male and female vocals are accompanied by electric guitar, bass, drums, piano and hammond organ. The ingredients are classic and vintage, the result is elegant, alluring.
Through their origins in Brillig and Reckoning, band members bring their affinity for memorable hooks and strong arrangements, and a confidence and calmness in their craft. Together, they share a background of international and national touring, festival stages, loyal fans and a large catalogue of recordings.
The Midnight Mares is not just the band or the eponymous album, it’s the theatre of the songs themselves.
The band’s LP launched in February 2021, and debuted at #1 on Three D Radio’s charts of the station’s most played tracks. The LP enjoyed 3 weeks in the top spot, plus another few runs at #2 and #3.
THE MIDNIGHT MARES LP is best enjoyed as the full 10 track collection in the intended order. Make room in your life for a record.
