Nottingham formed psychedelic art-pop sextet Midnight Rodeo broke out in 2022 with 3 singles on Brighton's Fat Cat Records. They supported these releases with a relentless touring schedule around the UK and Europe, three sold-out hometown shows and slots at prestigious festivals such as The Great Escape, Dot to Dot & Kendal Calling. They received consistent national and international press support for their first 4 singles (CLASH, So Young, Under The Radar, Brooklyn Vegan), and sold out 3 record releases. 

In 2023 the band toured with Deja Vega alongside performing their own headline dates, as well as making multiple festival appearances.  Their 18 date Winter 2023 tour was a huge success, including more sold out shows around the UK & in Paris.  2024 saw them play legendary Nottingham venue Rock City and headline The Windmill, Brixton, and they saw capacity crowds at festivals such as TGE, Focus Wales, Tramlines, Outer Town & Manchester Psych Fest. They also had another UK tour supporting The Howlers in October 2024. 

The much-anticipated debut album is set for release early 2025 on FactCat Records (Sigur Rós, Animal Collective, Frightened Rabbit, The Twilight Sad, We Were Promised Jetpacks), having been mixed by Grammy award winning mixing engineer Claudius Mittendorfer (Sorry, Temples, Parquet Courts) and mastered by John Webber (David Bowie, Ash, Coach Party, Junodream). 

"A multi-faceted piece of woozy surf pop, the Morricone guitars slice through those heavenly vocals, 
while the heavyweight percussion surges to its grand finale." Clash 

“sharp-shootin’ psych-pop” Clash 

“Spongy cinematic trip...wispy surf rock” So Young 

“A modern day psych-pop classic” Under The Radar 

 "The kind of sounds that Midnight Rodeo magic up here are so elegantly formed and tastefully conceived – like a gorgeous fusion of Los Bitchos and La Luz –  it could easily have sprung from the hippy kingdoms of California, Melbourne, or mainland Europe."  Hard of Hearing
