The hits just keep on coming! We are so excited to announce the addition of multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated rock band Goo Goo Dolls and hot new country trio Midland to our 2018 AT&T Concert Series line-up at the ConocoPhillips Borealis Theatre. Tickets for both concerts go on sale to the general public Friday, February 16 at 10 a.m.
Goo Goo Dolls, presented by KYMG, will perform Friday, August 24 at 7 p.m. With more than 12 million albums sold since 1986, this multi-platinum, Grammy-nominated rock band is one of the most globally respected and influential forces in popular music. “Name,” “Slide” and “Iris” are among the band’s impressive 14 Top 10 hits – more than any other artist in the history of the Hot AC format. The band has 11 full-length studio albums to their name, and released a five-song EP, You Should Be Happy, in 2017.
Midland takes the stage Saturday, August 25 at 7 p.m. Described as 70s California country, Midland is known for their smooth, Eagles-style harmonies and heart-on-your-sleeve lyrics, all sung with the twang of George Strait. After endearing themselves to fans with the hit radio single “Drinkin’ Problem” and a self-titled EP, the trio of friends known as Midland unveiled their full-length debut, On the Rocks, which also features the songs “Make a Little” and “Nothin’ New Under the Neon.”
