Midland, the celebrated U.S. country music trio known for their throwback, ‘90s-inspired honky-tonk style, is set to headline CHSq (Custom House Square) in Belfast

📍 Friday 5th September 2025

Musically, Midland is often described as neotraditional country—a modern revival of '70s and '80s country.

Their breakout hit, “Drinkin’ Problem,” not only went double Platinum but also earned them Grammy nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance in 2018.

They followed that with a win at the ACM Awards for New Vocal Duo or Group of the Year.

Midland is celebrated for their signature style—vintage Western-inspired outfits, including Nudie-style suits, embroidered cowboy hats and a flair for fashion
