FatCat Records

Midnight Rodeo

Nottingham-based Midnight Rodeo are a collective of five close friends who met on the city’s live circuit. Connecting while sharing bills as members of previous bands, such as Brown Lion Zoo, Hex & The Dream Church, The Hijinks, and Soft Girls & Boys Club. Signing with FatCat Records in 2022, they’ve released four singles to date, and now have their debut album being finalised for release in 2025.


Their sound is unique in its combination of a powerful groove laden rhythm section, alongside jangly guitars, theremin-esque synths, booming organs all held together with the ethereal, honeyed vocals of frontwoman Maddy Chamberlain. Krauty & latin-esque grooves are juxtaposed with powerful psych-pop garage floor-fillers, hypnotic and chaotic in equal measure.


The band have toured extensively, relentlessly, in the UK and Europe. Taking in two sold-out hometown shows and stellar slots at festivals such The Great Escape, Dot To Dot, and Kendall Calling. Regarding festivals, singer Maddy Chamberlain remembers, “My dad took me to my first festival when I was 7. I thought it was the most magical place. Music all day long, circus tents of dreams, running around shoeless for the entire weekend. I just wanted to be a part of it all and reside in festivals all year found. I still do to be honest.”
