Midnight Skye

Welcome to the music of Midnight Skye. The band was originally formed in California in 1990, where our first four albums were recorded and released. Founding member Joe LoPresti relocated to Seattle, where he re-formed the band with musicians from the Pacific Northwest. The current line-up is a group of talented musicians with diverse backgrounds in jazz, classical and rock music. "A New Horizon," completed early in 1999, is our sixth and most recent release. On this album, the band embarks in the direction of more dynamic contemporary jazz-influenced instrumental music. Drawing upon material from all of our previous albums, our live performances are an intriguing variety of style and instrumentation, including flute, sax, guitar, keyboards, drums, and percussion. The many moods of our music result in a dynamic show that satisfies a wide spectrum of musical tastes and interests.
