Las Vegas dark rockers The Nocturnal Affair are the brainchild of singer/songwriter Brendan Shane.  The band’s crushing and melancholic musical style is an ode to darker alternative music torchbearers like Type O Negative, HIM, David Bowie, Gary Numan, and Nine Inch Nails.  They capture a uniquely haunting sound steeped in downtrodden melodies enveloped in the darkness.

Since releasing their debut single, “Down”, on Earache Records in November of 2021 and completing their debut album (META)MORPHOSIS, which was produced by Grammy-nominated Disturbed bassist, John Moyer, Nocturnal have become a dominant force in the Vegas alternative music scene. 

The band’s latest radio single “Cross Me Out”, co-written by active-rock songwriting heavyweight Jonny Andrews (Halestorm, Three Days Grace) and co-produced/mixed by Logan Mader (of Machine Head and Once Human) has so far achieved 3million views on YouTube and is currently taking US rock radio by storm rising to #28 on Billboard mainstream rock radio chart. The follow up single ‘Benefit of Doubt’ has clocked 5 million views on Youtube for its head-turning, high energy cyber punk odyssey, with many plaudits claiming ‘they don’t make ‘em like that anymore…until now!’

Nocturnal have embarked on several full US tours with FOZZY and performed alongside a wide array of artists from heavy metal heavyweights like HELLYEAH, Asking Alexandria, and Pop Evil while also being accessible enough to share the stage with notable mainstream acts like 3 Doors Down, Black Stone Cherry, Alien Ant Farm and now Wednesday13 and Drowning Pool’s summer European tours.
