"California's Bleeding, I hear the same thing every time. We're gonna fall into the ocean, if we don't leave this fault behind."

Our Story

Midday Sons is a solo band in one sense, and a super group in the other. While lead singer and songwriter Dan Dillon is a staple, each album invites members of other popular groups, including 10th Avenue North and Manchester Orchestra - to co-create relevant, inspirational music that doesn't conform to today's script. As a collective, Midday Sons operates under the premise that rock music shouldn't be relegated as a relic of the past. We believe the best stories in music are yet to be told, and that the current generation of artists will stand up against an industry over-run with commercialized, cookie-cutter songs and labels that have consistently chosen profit over substance.

"Driving past the Outers, from the mountains to the sea, I've got a rolling bed behind me, and some luggage underneath."

"Down the rabbit hole I go. Like a frightened soul, I saw light as I crawled through that tunnel. There is love if you dig, there is wrong to forgive. There is hope that I found in that rubble."
