Midnight Maniac

Midnight Maniac is a progressive pop act that combines electronic and upbeat hard rock elements to create a fresh and darkly compelling sound. Established in 2023 in Austin, TX by Jake Allard and Marshall Benson, the multi-instrumentalist duo shares songwriting duties; with Allard taking on lead vocals and Benson helming lead guitar and studio production.

Unsatisfied with traditional rock ‘n roll, Midnight Maniac emerges as a beacon of change with an energetic and adventurous departure from the predictable, often indulging in unexpected key signature and time changes while delivering memorable hooks; Allard’s catchy vocal delivery is well-complemented by Benson’s signature precision guitar attack, taking the listener on an auditory ride that is laden with fantastic imagery that delves into hyper-conscious realms, lyrically touching on aspects of dreams, the extra-terrestrial, and a rich inner world.
