It’s set to rock n’ roll at Midland County Fairgrounds in Midland for two days from July 26 to 27. Friday’s set is led by co-headliners Platinum singer-songwriter Quinn XCII and rising alt-country sensation Jessie Murph, the first-ever on TNT, and Saturday’s top-billed by multi-genre hitmaker Jelly Roll.

This isn’t Jelly Roll’s first rodeo at Tailgate N’ Tallboys across the Midwest. He performed several times, including in the festival’s Auburn stop – the original venue in Michigan before their switch to Midland – in 2022. Since then, he has skyrocketed to the top of rock and country charts, which is why the festival is excited to bring him back on stage. On the other hand, Quinn XCII and Jessie Murph are both first-timers. 

Bailey Zimmerman and Yung Gravy got the primetime slots in last year’s edition, attracting close to 5,000 people each day. 

In addition to the headlining trio, the festival will feature Warren Zeiders and Matt Hansen, along with Alexandra Kay, Tucker Wetmore, Lakeview, Hueston, and DJ Cliffy D.
