Midland at Majestic Valley Arena

Midland are making their way back to Montana on Friday, July 31 for an outdoor show at Majestic Valley Arena in Kalispell.

The Texas-born trio channels a distinctly post-modern traditional classic country essence through thick harmonies, steel guitars and a worn-in cool that has made their music a dive bar staple worldwide.

Footloose and free, working hard and drinking harder, always riding into the sunset or sunrise, Grammy-nominated trio Midland makes country music feel viscerally alive and timeless, with songs for people to drink, swing, love and, yes, lose to.

Name inspired by a Dwight Yoakam song, the Dripping Springs, Texas-born trio channels a distinctly 21st century post-modern traditionalism, recapturing that classic country essence through thick harmonies, steel guitars and a worn-in cool that has made their music a dive bar staple worldwide.

Honed in barrooms, it’s a sound that’s been imitated but never duplicated since their now 5X platinum, No. 1 “Drinkin’ Problem.”

For Mark Wystrach, Cameron Duddy and Jess Carson, music isn’t just something to play in your car.

It envelopes their aesthetics, from the Nudie Cohen-inspired rhinestone suits, their Insolito Tequila and Kingsmaker cigar line to their album-focused musical explorations and lean, song-forward live presentation.

From head-turning debut On The Rocks through the Billboard Top Country Albums chart-topping Let It Roll and into The Last Resort: Greetings From and 2024’s Barely Blue, Midland has built a catalog that bridges conceptual ambition with roots-driven songwriting, continuing through projects like the origin-story soundtrack The Sonic Ranch (recorded at the historic Texas studio) and Live From The Palomino.

Alongside “Drinkin’ Problem,” their catalog also includes platinum-certified “Burn Out” and GOLD-certified favorites including “Cheatin’ Songs,” “Make A Little” and “On The Rocks.”

The band’s commitment to the sounds, stories and places that define country music persists in Stages, out now via Blue Highway Records.

Braiding Laurel Canyon country-rock, Texas outliers, and a shot of vintage Nashville, the project pulls together the many phases of their journey, further staking their claim as one of country’s most engaging acts.
