The Milk Carton Kids

The Milk Carton Kids

Los Angeles indie folk duo The Milk Carton Kids, singer-guitarists Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan, have been compared to Simon & Garfunkel.

Their songs invite listeners to lean in close and hover in the small moments the music magnifies.

Much has changed since they burst on the Folk scene in 2011. And The Milk Carton Kids have changed too. But at least one constant remains. Pattengale and Ryan continue to make music that entices us turn down the volume on a chaotic world and dwell as long as possible on what matters most.

With rootsy arrangements, the duo's signature minimalist sound takes in lonesome plucks and strums of the banjo, often employed either for lightning-speed or rhythm, so that it feels more like light cast across a stretch of grass than a whole bluegrass instrument.
