3. Stars for Saskatchewan Concert

The Middle Coast show will leave your face feeling like you’ve laughed for a lifetime, your heart feeling lifted, and your circle of friends feeling dudes bigger. Effortlessly weaving story-telling, deep groves, audience interaction, and sweet solos, a Middle Coast show is not one you will forget. Having played together since they were 14 years old, their chemistry is palpable. Almost like they’re married, but also not really like that. However, they spend a lot of time touring Western Canada in a van, making fans and friends wherever they go. Middle Coast’s goal is first and foremost to entertain, and they do it. Every. Single. Time. Details
