Built on decades of friendship and family ties, mixed with a healthy dose of musical influence and experience…Middleground made their debut on the Western Pennsylvania Bluegrass Music Scene at Clarion River Jam in March 2022. Since that moment, these 5 musicians have worked collectively to hone their talents and give a more polished performance each and every show. Middleground has appeared onstage more than 20 times in their premiere year, delighting audiences with light-hearted, relatably comical showmanship. Rapidly gaining high regard, they are requested in venues such as: theaters, taverns, ballrooms, and most dear to their hearts: fields full of campers surrounded by Bluegrass Family. Middleground highlights Bluegrass rooted instrumentation with Southern/Classic Country, Rock and Blues flavored song choices showcasing shared lead/harmony vocals, four lead instruments and a solid rhythmic foundation. Rounding off their vast cover song catalog with band member’s own original material and songs passed down through generations, they are also actively procuring new tunes from industry songwriters for upcoming recording efforts. In addition to musical artistry, the members have all been undeniably supportive and encouraging in building community at festivals, open jams, gatherings, benefits and anywhere else music is to be shared. Thankful for the opportunity to play a part in keeping musical traditions alive while creating new opportunities across the tri-state Pennsylvania/Ohio/West Virginia region.
