Biography:

Midlake is an American rock band from Denton, Texas, that formed in 1999. The band first gained popularity in Europe.

Midlake began in 1999 by a group of jazz students at the University of North Texas. The original lineup consisted of Tim Smith (vocals, guitars, keyboards), McKenzie Smith (drums), Paul Alexander (bass), Eric Nichelson (guitar), and Evan Jacobs (keyboards). Their initial work (under the working name The Cornbread All-Stars) consisted of funk/jazz explorations heavily influenced by Herbie Hancock.

NOTES! -

1. Played on CAPO 3
2. In the Chorus where he sings "We'll find them in time somewhere" The word
"Time" is held while several chords are played. Just listen out for the chord
changes and play what I've written below in time, It's kinda tricky to write them
down on a held word if you know what I mean. Hope I havent confused any of you. =P
