Midnight Youth - A New Zealand Band on its Way to International Success

Ranked #9,213 in Music, #250,922 overall

Midnight Youth Is My Favorite New Zealand Band

With two number one hits in New Zealand and an international concert schedule, Midnight Youth is well on their way to the top. Their music is exciting, innovative and just plain awesome! Midnight Youth received two significant awards at the 2009 New Zealand Music Awards, Best Group and Best Rock Album (for their debut album The Brave Don't Run).

If you haven't heard this New Zealand Band yet, be prepared for a treat. We saw them last year and were lucky enough to see them again last week in Auckland, where they followed their own show with a fan Q&A session before running off to the airport for their next engagement. So, what are you waiting for, grab a coffee and enjoy the video clips I have collected here of Midnight Youth.

Question and Answer Session with this New Zealand Band

Midnight Youth looked as though they enjoyed the session

Midnight Youth answers questions

When the announcer opened the floor the questions, the fans showed their love of the band with the first three questions being:
- Can I have my picture taken with the band?
- Can I have an autograph?
- Can I snag your drumsticks?

One fan asked the band for a bit of advice for kids wanting to make it as a band. They offered the following suggestions:

  • Practice was the number suggestion
  • Find a group of guys who are your friends who all have the same ambitions
  • Work hard
  • For locals they recommend participating in Rockquest.
