The guys in Midland all have hobbies they enjoy outside of music. For lead singer Mark Wystrach, it’s surfing. Lead guitarist Jess Carson loves antiquing, and bassist Cameron Duddy says, “I like to go bouldering, both on the road and when we’re at home.”
While climbing outside is always preferred, Cam says, “If it’s the winter, you can usually find a climbing gym, and most college towns have them in big cities. And then when it’s nice out and we’re home, there’s a place called Enchanted Rock not far from where we live in Texas. There’s great climbing out there.”
Because Midland is always working so much, touring and promoting their music, like their latest single, “Cheatin’ Songs,” Cameron doesn’t get to go bouldering and climbing as much as he would like to, and he says, “I’m an amateur but I really do dig it. My wife and I like to get out there.”
