Band Bio – Midnight Channel:
Midnight Channel is a Lethbridge based jazz collective founded by a couple of friends who met in the University of Lethbridge music program.

Inspired by the free jazz movements of the past, the group strives to find the perfect balance between structured songs and free improvisation.

Originally taking residence at the Nikka Yuko Japanese Gardens as a mere hangout, the group slowly began to establish itself to the point where they could perform regularly together. They are currently working on a second studio album and collaborations with other local artists.
