Midnight South

After many late nights writing, jamming, and brainstorming ideas, the country band Midnight South was born. Less than two years later, in 2023 they were named “Vocal Group of the Year “by the Arkansas Country Music Awards Association.

Midnight South has shared the stage with many country music mainstays, some of which include Dylan Scott, Randy Houser, Colt Ford, Tyler Farr, The Josh Abbott Band, Frank Foster, Chris Cagle, Jon Langston, and Texas Hill.  

Perhaps the band's crowning achievement, however, came in May of 2023, when they were selected as one of the eight Jim Beam session artists, performing at the 2023 Gulf Coast Jam in Panama City Beach, Florida. Competing in a “battle of the bands” for a chance to open for Kenny Chesney at the festival, the band won decidedly and got to share the stage with the likes of Lily Rose, Bailey Zimmerman, Chase Rice, and most notably, Kenny Chesney. This marked Midnight South’s biggest show to date as they played for upwards of 25,000 country music fans. 

This award winning group of Arkansans are on the rise in the country music scene, and they'll be live at the Collins Theatre for Northeast Arkansas to enjoy!
