Debut Full Length Album from Midnite Theory "This Town" Out Now!

Still Green

Midnite Theory formed in late 2006 in Thousand Oaks, CA. With less emphasis on computer created sounds than other groups, they’re a refreshing look at the whole hip-hop genre. With influences ranging from Bob Dylan to Reggae, Jazz and Alt Hip Hop, Midnite Theory manage to pull off what others would consider an elaborate and complex combination. The band has played hundreds of shows throughout California and Arizona and has also opened up for and shared the stage with national acts such as Doomtree, The Flobots, Shwayze, BadFish, Unwritten Law, The Living Legends, Aceyalone, Dirt Nasty, Hyper Crush and LMFAO.


In 2006 the groups MC "Nash The Kid" and friend/producer Jeremy Hanlon looked to put together a live band to showcase their unique style of music. They asked Nash's brother Danny to play guitar and found bassist Matt Lieberman and drummer Kris Carpenter at a party at 4Bros Studios in Westlake, Ca. After a few months of rehearsals at 4bros and playing a handful of shows singer/songwriter Leilani was added to the group on vocals. The band quickly meshed and a created a sound that drew comparisons to Atmosphere, Gym Class Heroes, and B.O.B. In late 2007 the band set out to record the "4Bros EP" and initial tracking was done at 4Bros during two 12 hour days in November 2007. Midnite Theory continued to gig putting together self-funded tours to San Francisco and San Diego and hitting up the local Los Angeles scene at places like Rusty’s Surf Ranch, The Gig, The Aura and The Temple Bar. During early 2008 Midnite Theory began opening up their Wednesday night rehearsals at 4Bros to their fans. What began with 20 friends soon turned into 150+ people every Wednesday night in what became known around town as “open Wednesdays at 4bros.” The group also began throwing huge 500+ parties every few months at 4Bros studios with the likes of Underground Hip Hop Legend “Aceyalone” and Living Legends member “Bicasso.” During this time Midnite Theory was discovered by producer and Document Room owner J.T. Meskiel (Puddle of Mudd, Lauryn Hill). Meskiel invited the band out to his recording compound in Malibu and asked to produce the bands next EP. Tracking for "Never Sleep Till Sunrise" took place over a 2 month span in Late summer 2008. 

By the end of 2008 Midnite Theory had two finished EP's ready for release. They released the self produced "4Bros EP" in Jan '09. and released the EP "Never Sleep Till Sunrise," as a digital only release on Itunes in March of '09. 2009 also saw the addition of a new member in Keyboardist Rachel Bourne, as well as being awarded a spot on the Music Connection Top 100 list of Unsigned Artists for 2009. In 2010 the band signed a record deal with upstart Planet LA Records and much of 2010 was spent in the studio as the group worked on their debut full length record. The band also completed a Southwest tour of Vegas, Arizona, New Mexico and Texas for SXSW and composed a song for a Chronic Taco's commercial which saw airplay on MTV, VH1, Fuse and Comedy Central. 

Midnite Theory has since left Planet LA records and are set to independently release their debut full length record titled "This Town" June 21st 2011.
