Canberra Blues Society July Pro Blues Jam

Midnight Howlers host Canberra Blues Society July Pro Blues Jam.

Midnight Howlers are a 5-piece Canberra blues-rock band. The band formed in 2024 from a collection of experienced local musicians who wanted to put together a blend of good dance-oriented tunes from lesser-known local and international artists. Their brand of music fuses blues harp and guitars with a solid bass & drums rhythm section.

The band consists of-

Pete Brown - Vocals & Blues Harp, Steve Bresnan - Guitar, Glenn Leith - Guitar & Slide Guitar, John Van Buuren - Bass, Cameron Whitnall - Drums

Midnight Howlers will get you toe-tapping and dancing with their unique selection of songs from artists such as Rock Bottom James & The Detonators, The Red Devils, Mitch Kashmar, and Moreland & Arbuckle to name a few.

The host band will be followed by some of the finest musicians in the region jamming together for a great afternoon of live blues music. So bring your family, bring your friends and don’t forget your dancing shoes.
