a crew of sonic troublemakers resurrecting the raw, unpolished electricity of early American nightlife. This isn’t museum jazz—this is the sound of back-rooms, basement bars, smoke-clouded corners, and after-hours mischief.
Led by Drew Nugent—cornet in one hand, mischief in the other—the Midnight Society plays with the fever and grit of a time when music wasn’t just entertainment, it was rebellion. Their sets swing, growl, laugh, and swagger with the wild, restless pulse of the 1910s–1930s underground scene.
