Midnight Faces (band)

Midnight Faces is an American pop music group originally from Grand Rapids, Michigan and now based in Los Angeles, whose style is influenced by 1980s-era synthpop and post-punk.

Midnight Faces was founded as a duo by composer Matt Doty (a former member of Saxon Shore alongside J. Tillman) and vocalist Philip Stancil.[1][2][3] The duo initially lived in different cities (Doty in Grand Rapids, Michigan and Stancil in Washington, DC)[4] and created their music using Internet-enabled file sharing, but by November 2014, both members had moved to Los Angeles.[5] For their third album, 2016's Heavenly Bodies, the group expanded to a trio, adding drummer Paul Doyle to its lineup.[6]

gollark: 90% of the time it's normal imperative code sprinkled with really weird passing-around of state.
