Midnight Rodeo was formed in April of 2000 with the sole purpose of providing first-class entertainment throughout the Rocky Mountain Region. A band of a wide variety of styles, Midnight Rodeo excels in Rock, Blues, New Country, Classic Country, and prides itself on being able to provide something for everyone in its audience. Whether you are a rock & blues enthusiast or a die-hard country fan, Midnight Rodeo works hard to please the gamut of audiences with 'America's Music.'
Led by singer/guitarist Marv Roberts, Midnight Rodeo has strived to work not only with good solid musicians but also good solid guys. 'Character is king,' as Marv describes. 'Music is more than just getting up there and showing what you got, it's about putting your heart in something that you can be proud of and the people will enjoy. To do that effectively, you need good guys in the band.'
These solid and talented individuals include Calib Bruce from New Mexico on drums, the passionate and powerful Noah Matthews from Tokyo on bass, the always consistent Matt Rich hailing from Denver on lead guitar, and the musically inclined Greg Gibson from Wisconsin on keys. Together they form a group of guys you can have a blast hearing at your local club and also bring home to Mom's for dinner. “It’s hard to find good musicians. It’s even harder to find good musicians that are good people. Midnight Rodeo has both,” says Greg Gibson. 'Not a lot of drinking, smoking, or fooling around,' says Calib. 'Just get up there and give it all they got and portray a positive image.'
Nearly every single member of Midnight Rodeo has mastered a wide variety of musical formats in addition to country, including rock, jazz, blues, and southern rock, making the mix of Midnight Rodeo’s music appealing to all audiences. But since joining the band each one also considers themselves 100% country affectionate. 'Country music is a genre that makes you think,” explains Matt. “Believe it or not, I enjoy as much if not more than rock because the changes are more interesting and I’m very impressed with the musicianship in country music.' Maybe it’s Midnight Rodeo that has had something to do with it.
