Ben Beattie & his “After Midnight Band”

…bringing a soulful kenosis to their improvisational style, as they transform grooves into a transcendent experience.

“The After Midnight experience takes audiences on an epic musical journey celebrating the sounds of the greats and the lesser known. Taking you through all the very best rip-roaring-honking woooopin’ ‘n’ a hollerin’ Jump Blues, hypnotic Latin beats, joyous African township music, soulful ballads and the kinda smokey Jazz that can only be found in a basement in Chicago at 3am!”

Ben Beattie is a saxophonist, pianist, multi-instrumentalist, composer, arranger, session musician and band leader of ‘Ben Beattie’s After Midnight Band’, based in the UK (North Yorkshire). He grew up on the York musician scene and has been involved with many of the York bands and events throughout the years, he has since played for some of the world’s most prestigious agencies, performed in front of celebrities, royalty, internationally influential clients, all over the UK, USA, Scandinavia, Europe and shared the stage with globally renowned DJ’s, session musicians and jazz artists in some the most exquisite venues and festivals – but whenever possible, he always enjoys returning home to the friendly audiences of York.

Join Ben and his After Midnight Band right before they depart for their 5th annual appearance at the Guinness Cork Jazz Festival in the South of Ireland… for a perfect balance of civility and energy that’ll blow away the stormy Monday blues!
