Midland unveils "Barely Blue" tracks

An ode to Sin City, "Vegas" reframes its infamous calling card of "what happens in Vegas..." into a brief, but true romance. The video, directed by Harper Smith, reflects the melancholy and vintage aesthetic of the song, finding the boys on the quieter side of the showbiz lights, betting and playing cards with enough whiskey to last all night.

Lead singer Mark Wystrach said, "'Vegas' is an homage to the wildest town in the world and the intense connections and losses that tend to happen in Sin City along the way. Sonically, the song feels like a tip of the cowboy hat to early George Strait classics penned by the legendary Dean Dillon."

Guitarist Jess Carson said, "'Vegas' takes Sin City's unofficial calling card "what happens in Vegas" and interprets it through a love story. The phrase instead here is a sweet and tender ode to an all too brief romance that lingers after the tellers have returned to their daily lives."

Produced by Dave Cobb, the eight-song collection finds bassist/vocalist Cameron Duddy, Wystrach and Carson leaning into the trio's harmonies.

"Vegas" is the third release from "Barely Blue," following the release of "Lucky Sometimes," and the album's first single, "Old Fashioned Feeling," was released in May.

The trio has also announced additional tour dates for "The Get Lucky Tour" that kicks off on Sept. 19 in Cincinnati and will make stops at Red Rocks Amphitheater in Morrison, Col. on Oct. 12 with Jackson Dean and at the ACL Live in their hometown of Austin on Dec. 20.
