Night Walks Release New Single “Midnight Avenue”

Night Walks’ third single, “Midnight Avenue,” is an energetic anthem that captures the essence of a night out in Baltimore’s Hampden neighborhood. This upbeat track showcases the band’s signature blend of anthemic energy and space-laced swagger, reminiscent of acts like David Bowie, Bruce Springsteen, and The War On Drugs.

David French, the band’s singer and guitarist, shares that the lyrics came to him in a burst of inspiration, completed in just 20 minutes. The song recounts a cold and wild night from years past, marked by a raucous dinner party that spilled onto “The Avenue.” Despite the chaos of lost phones, jackets, and a police encounter, the night ended frostbite-free for everyone involved.

While Night Walks typically lean towards longer, slow-burn songs, “Midnight Avenue” offers a refreshing change with its concise and punchy composition. The band meticulously crafted the instrumentation, auditioning five different versions before settling on the first one they tried.

The result is a track with a compelling rhythm, energetic guitar tones, and vocals that add a unique timbre. “Midnight Avenue” not only captures the spirit of a memorable night but also marks an entertaining stride in Night Walks’ journey. Listen to the new single—now available everywhere.
