Midland in Concert
Like Midland's sound itself, the band's image brings together elements from different eras of country: a little bit Conway Twitty, a little bit Eagles, a little bit George Strait. But don't let the fashion fool you. When Midland gets onstage, image doesn't matter a bit — the only important thing is the way they dig into their songs with spotless vocal harmonies, perfectly twanging guitar licks and hooks to spare. That's what won them fame and fans, and it's what powers their live shows. So whether Mark Wystrach, Cameron Duddy and Jess Carson are churning out electrifying versions of their hits like "Drinkin' Problem" and "Burn Out," or dipping into their bag of cover tunes, they always give a hundred and one percent at every single concert.
Midland Background
When Midland emerged in 2017, it seemed like the last thing mainstream Nashville was looking for was three guys sporting 'staches and embroidered Western wear while playing tunes that combined country-rock harmonies with an old-school outlaw sensibility. But that's exactly what the trio had to offer. And somehow, they managed to connect with country audiences in a big way (either despite or because of their trend bucking, depending on how you look at it). Their debut single, "Drinkin' Problem," went platinum and hit No. 4 on the country charts, while their first album, On the Rocks, made it all the way to No. 2. The album generated another big country hit with the track "Burn Out," proving to everyone in Nashville that the next big thing didn't have to be just like the last big thing.
