At the cross-section of Oklahoma City's burgeoning indie music scene and its underappreciated Latino south side, Late Night Messages manifests a dream born of its bedroom pop origins. The five-piece band, initially conceived as a solo project by principal singer-songwriter Jonathan Martinez, has blossomed in sound and space to bring a full live sound to the studio and the stage. Joining Martinez are: Merari Cruz Padilla (keys, percussion, vocals); Elias Dominguez (drums); Mike Manning (guitar); and Israel Parada (bass). Together, they breathe dynamic life into the diverse Late Night Messages vision, each setlist and tracklist executed with cultural homages, tonal arcs, and stories of perpetual self-discovery.
