Who we are
The Midnight Papers is a garage rock duo from Houston, Texas that is influenced by proto-punk and new wave. Their sound is a combination of fuzzed out, distorted guitar tone, powerful drums, and melodic female lead vocals. Their music is a little bit Pretenders, a little bit The Kills and a little bit Patti Smith.
The Midnight Papers’ forthcoming debut album was chosen as one of Houston Chronicle’s 22 Houston Music Releases You Need to Hear in 2025. The album releases on June 26, 2025.
Their demo, Quelque Chose, was picked up by 6 Towns Radio in the UK and played on the air less than a week after its February 2024 release, on a show that scouts out promising new post-punk and eclectic indie rock.
The band has performed throughout Texas since its launch in 2024, including shows in Houston, Austin, San Antonio, Fort Worth, San Marcos, Beaumont and Laredo. The duo played its first SXSW in March 2025.
The Midnight Papers are: Tiffany Hamilton on guitar and vocals, and Tim Richey on drums and vocals.
