Midnight Ride (song)

On 1 June 2024, Minogue quoted a tweet from Peck, posted 7 months prior, which sparked rumours of a possible collaboration between the two. Minogue previously experimented with country music on her 2018 album Golden which was recorded in Nashville. On 2 June during Minogue's headlining show at Outloud Music Festival at WeHo Pride, she invited Peck and Diplo on stage to perform "Midnight Ride" for the first time. When introducing the song to the audience, Peck dubbed "Midnight Ride" a "disco-country song", blending elements of both himself and Minogue. Following the performance, pre-save links went live, and the song was released on 7 June 2024. ==Composition==
