It’s a strange life for the Queensland country fan. How can you reconcile your love for country pickin’, soaring pedal steel and songs about women, horses and trucks when you’re more than 14 thousand kilometres away from Nashville?

There’re no such concerns for Brisbane five-piece Midnight Son and the Crime Scene. These boys just straighten their Stetsons, pick up their guitars and play damn fine traditional country with a twist that would be equally welcome in Bluebird Café or Brunswick St.

This is as real as country gets. Unlike many bands kicking around the country music scene, Midnight Son and the Crime Scene aren’t interested in messing with the format. They’re not alt-country. They’re not country rock. They’ve got their feet squarely in the traditional country camp, only occasionally drifting into western territory. These boys stick to songs and styles that Willie, Waylon and the other country giants of old would be proud to call their own.
