I am super proud to announce the release of my new single (Friday March 28th , 2025)
It’s a co-write with my sister Maureen and produced by the incredibly talented Jason Barry of Barrytone Studios.
I have said it before and I will say it again, I am so blessed to be able to work with him. He is a monster talent and he always pulls the best out of me!
Song Writing History: My sister and I were introduced to a tequila that’s actually blue in colour “Tarantula Azul Tequila” by a good friend in Ohio. She likes tequila and blue being her favourite colour it was an instant hit! 
During the onset of the pandemic we joked about writing a song about that tequila.
She later sent me an audio clip of her playing piano and singing a chorus. She intended it only as a joke but, the moment I heard it, I told her that’s a great song idea!
*Fun Fact: The guitar solo performed by Jason Barry is an awesome, self described 'happy accident'.

LYRICS
‘BLUE TEQUILA NIGHTS’
						
Sometimes it feels like the worlds gone insane
So much sorrow, too much pain
Trying to wrap my head around what can’t be explained
Makes a body weak and your soul drained

I look out and it’s so grey		
Think I’ll never find my way
But I’ll keep searching for sunlight
On these blue tequila nights

Can’t just talk about, what can’t wait
Too much good here, so much great
If we work as one you know it’s not too late
This is not our destiny, not our fate

Well I look out and it’s so grey
I guess I’ll never find my way		
But I’ll keep searching for sunlight
On these blue tequila nights

Days fly by, the nights grow long
Praying for a rainbow, some magic in a song
Shed another tear for all it’s worth
Pour another drink, I guess it won’t hurt

Waiting on a world of change
Have we all just lost our way

So I’ll keep searching for sunlight
On these blue tequila nights

Hailing from Dripping Springs, TX lead vocalist Mark Wystrach fronts Midland’s rich sound that is rounded out with lead guitarist/vocalist Jess Carson and bass player/vocalist Cameron Duddy. Rooted in tradition in both sound and style, the trio initially garnered attention playing clubs in the region. Their critically-acclaimed sophomore album LET IT ROLL (Big Machine Records) earned the No. 1 position on Billboard’s Top Country Album Sales chart upon release, receiving praise from outlets such as Rolling Stone, Variety, NPR and Entertainment Weekly among others. Wystrach, Carson and Duddy all played an integral role in writing the 14-track album with Shane McAnally and Josh Osborne which features Country Radio’s Top 40 and climbing single “Cheatin’ Songs.” The album was produced by Dann Huff, McAnally and Osborne and was a follow-up to the critically acclaimed debut album, ON THE ROCKS (Big Machine Records). Launching in 2017 with rave reviews, ON THE ROCKS was declared “the year’s best Country album” by Washington Post. Their 2x Platinum-certified chart-topping debut “Drinkin’ Problem,” which offers an intentional nod to Country music reminiscent of the 1970s and 80s, earned the band their first GRAMMY® Awards nominations for Best Country Song and Best Country Duo/Group Performance. Midland was also named New Vocal Group of the Year at the 2018 ACM Awards and is nominated for Group of the Year at the 2020 ACM Awards.
