We are based in New Jersey and perform in the following modalities:
Music Workshops
For aspiring musicians! Vocalists and instrumentalists are mentored by Way Past Midnight during two day music intensive workshop where they work through numerous songs. The intensive workshop concludes with the participants performing for a live audience.

"Last Thursday, we had the distinct pleasure of welcoming the band Way Past Midnight to present "Songs in Celebration of Black History Month." The band performed selections from pre-colonial times to the present, introducing each number with an explanation of its importance in Black history and American history. Thank you to Way Past Midnight! ...a wonderful program. Besides the beautiful musical selections, we learned so much!"

“Evita and Melody of Way Past Midnight have performed as a duo at my restaurant several times and I keep inviting them back. Their sound is beautiful, unique, and they play and sing in varied styles. My staff and customers enjoy them, and the music has even attracted some new customers in from off the street. Highly recommend.”

"I have had the pleasure of experiencing two wonderful performances of the “Way Past Midnight Ensemble”. Last year we saw them perform in an outdoor festival. I was very much impressed with the range of styles of the performers. They offer everything from Operatic numbers to down home soul/blues numbers. 'Way Past Midnight' with the Bella Luce Ensemble had another outstanding performance in Old Bridge at St. Thomas church. Again, the talent was apparent in the various styles and pieces chosen. This was a delightful event with the ushers getting up to do harmonies for the finale, “Climb Every Mountain”. They sure know how to deliver a celebration of song! Do yourself a favor, get out to see this local talent, they will not disappoint. "
-- Judy K, Jackson, NJ

"My 9 year old grandaughter and I take piano lessons with Melody. She mentioned that she was performing so we went! I cannot tell you how captivated we both were the entire time, we were mesmerized! One was more talented than the next! We were local! I suggest anyone who appreciates the arts to try and catch a performance for an elevated entertainment experience! Btw, Melody is an excellent piano teacher!"

"My husband and I attended the Viva La Beat on May 15th at St. Thomas the Apostle RC Church, and we enjoyed it so much that we would like to provide a testimonial. Way Past Midnight and Ensemble Bella Luce performed all different genres of music, from opera to rock. The music and voices were incredible. The entire audience, including ourselves, were engrossed in this beautiful concert. We are so looking forward to the next one."
-- Robin M.
"Over the past few years I have enjoyed watching the evolution of and listening to the amazing band Way Past Midnight. From concerts on the front porch of Melody's home, intimate coffee house events, and full orchestra concerts in Churches, the set lists represent a well crafted and diverse range of music / vocals from rock to opera making for most pleasing and very enjoyable performances."
