​The Midnight Dynamos, originally started out as a duo created by Steve & Colin back in 1993,
featuring real life brothers Colin Temple on Guitar and Lead Vocals and Steve Temple on Drums and Vocals.

Originally Colin & Steve didn’t know what to call the duo and several names where suggested including “Cost”
which are the first 2 letters of both their names but due to the lack of confidence in that name another
one was suggested – Midnight Dynamos, a hit record for a band called Matchbox in the Eighties and the brothers
loved the name and the song and thought it would be perfect for the name of the Duo, permission
was granted for use of the name by Mr Graham Fenton the lead singer with Matchbox and the song writer
Steve Bloomfield who wrote the song and also the lead guitarist with Matchbox was over joyed that they
wanted to use this name so Midnight Dynamos began.
