Experience the legendary rock sounds of ZZ Top, the iconic trio from Texas, as they take the stage at The Midland. Known as "That Little Ol’ Band From Texas," ZZ Top holds the distinction of being the longest-running major rock band with its original members intact. Inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2004, the band features Billy F Gibbons, Dusty Hill, and Frank Beard, who have been delivering their unique blend of rock, blues, and boogie for nearly 45 years.

From their early days in Houston, where they emerged from the fusion of two rival bands, ZZ Top has consistently pushed musical boundaries. Their third album, Tres Hombres, brought them national attention with the hit "La Grange," a song that remains a signature piece. Over the years, they have continued to evolve, incorporating tech-age elements into their blues roots, as seen in their paradigm-shifting album Eliminator, which produced hits like "Gimme All Your Lovin’," "Sharp Dressed Man," and "Legs."

ZZ Top's live performances are renowned for their energy and showmanship, featuring iconic elements such as beards, cars, and a Texas-shaped stage. Their music, characterized by powerful guitar riffs and soulful blues, has captivated audiences worldwide, from North America to Europe and beyond. With a rich history that includes a variety of acclaimed albums and a commitment to preserving the legacy of blues music, ZZ Top remains a vital force in the rock genre. Their enduring appeal lies in their ability to stay true to their roots while continually exploring new sonic landscapes.
