The group has performed in countless stages, bars and private homes in the United States and recently won 1st place at a battle of the bands for Resort World Casino. They have also performed at numerous important events at various venues from corporations to weddings, gracing the stage for veterans, the Mayor of Bristol and the Special Assistant to the Secretary of Defense. Playing Top 40, Motown, Disco, Jazz, Rock and more, Crossing Midnight has become one of the most highly sought bands out of New York City."
