MIDLAND RELEASES NEW SINGLE “OLD FASHIONED FEELING”

On Wednesday 22nd May, GRAMMY®-nominated trio Midland releases “Old Fashioned Feeling,” a melancholic reflection of an intoxicating relationship, steeped in smoke and served with a dash of bitters. The new single marks their first collaboration with GRAMMY-winning producer Dave Cobb and was recorded at the historic Georgia Mae Studios in Savannah, GA. The track arrives with an official video directed by Harper Smith that finds the band on a golden-hued film set surrounded by showbiz chaos and a cast of hurried flappers, mimes, managers and actors.

“Sometimes it feels good to go for a swim in the Blues, have a sip of that fiery nostalgia and live in the memory of something that was once so sweet that’s now turned bitter. Lose yourself in this Classic Country cup of 80 proof soul with a back beat,” explains Midland. “It’s the sound of every dingy neon hazed bar room where you go to hide in plain sight.”

Earlier this month, Midland and Orville Peck released their sweeping caution-to-the-wind Roy Orbison-evoking collaboration “The Hurtin’ Kind” that appeared on Peck’s new duets album Stampede Vol. 1. The song, which the artists debuted live aboard Midland’s The Last Resort Cruise last month was written by Orville Peck, Leland, Ryan Raines, Mark Wystrach, Cameron Duddy and Jess Carson.

Fresh off the heels of the maiden voyage of The Last Resort Cruise, Midland wrapped their Up In Texas headline tour earlier this month and are hitting the road for a series of headline shows including the L.A. County Fair this Friday, May 24 and a return to the legendary Fort Worth, TX honky tonk Billy Bob’s for a two-night stand on Saturday 21st and Sunday 22nd June. The trio will also make a handful of festival appearances including the Bluebird Music Festival, Boots and Hearts Music Festival and Born & Raised.

Next month, the band will release a cover of Tom Petty’s iconic “Mary Jane’s Last Dance” on the tribute album Petty Country: A Country Music Celebration of Tom Petty out Friday 21st June via Big Machine Records.
