Since 2016, country three-piece Midland has been putting its own stamp on American country music.

Now performing around the world, you too can experience a live gig with Midland tickets available to buy or sell on StubHub.
With a sound that harks back to the glory days of The Eagles, American country music band Midland is redefining the genre in the tradition of George Strait and other new traditionalists. Founded by three friends in Los Angeles in 2016, the band's first album, 'On The Rocks', hit number two on the Billboard country music chart and contained three charted singles of which one, 'Drinkin' Problem', went gold. Their rich sound, smooth harmonies and emphasis on instrumentals have earned them widespread acclaim and nominations for numerous awards, as well as the opportunity to perform alongside artists like Faith Hill, Tim McGraw and Emmylou Harris. Though their career is in its early days, the band has already established a firm footing at the centre of the new American country movement and is doing much to bring the genre to the rest of the world, including recording a version of 'Drinkin' Problem' in Spanish and touring other countries like the UK. Whether you're an avid country fan or looking to experience something a little bit different, Midland tickets will soon see you singing along to the band's indisputably catchy songs.
Despite their authentic look and sound, Midland is a little controversial as a country band for having formed in Los Angeles and having strong connections to other musical genres or industries - its founding members had also worked as a model, actor and music video director for pop artists such as Bruno Mars. Yet despite their unusual background, Midland's music is undeniably influenced by some of the greatest country artists and is redeveloping the tradition not only from the musicians' side but for thousands of new country fans as well. Proving that it's ok to love this music even if you don't come from Texas or Tennessee, the band Midland has a phenomenal stage presence and disarming charm as they sing about life on the road, drinking and love - classic country subjects treated without a hint of irony. Take your place among the audience to enjoy one of their next shows, with Midland tickets available now to buy or sell on StubHub.
