I love the addition of the banjo, and I think Joey may have a real future in murder ballads. Also fun to watch an audience that fires back ... 🤣 I am very much looking forward to the new album!
Love the shock mount first. Very nice testing. Also the banjo-guitar combo is incredible. That first song is 🔥🔥 Last, a fun story. I saw you by accident in 2013 when you opened for Punch Brothers at the Rio Theater in Santa Cruz and I was blown away by the quality of the sound. It was like a holy moment of sonic reverence. Years later I found out the secret to that sonic wonder was the little microphone between them, and I bought one. Now it’s just about the only thing I use for recording. ❤
Listen to the light inflections Kenneth puts of the words 'feel' in the second verse during "I mostly feel like hell" and 'slowly' in "the pain will slowly fade". Just gorgeous. These two continue to show why they are my favorite singer songwriters working today.
There comes a catch in my throat with the songs. The snarky humor brings such laughter that my grin breaks into genuine giggling and my shoulders shake. My emotions are indeed that strong, as is my gratitude for all your talent and gorgeous presentation in sharing it. 🎶😂❤😭❤😂🎶 That light filters down upon your two figures. Comic relief, otherworldly messengers, relatable storytellers. The sound hits my ears, the words my heart, and…crying is less pain, more a true connection. You capture it. What we all feel. Thank you, coolest duo ever to earn and steal the title.
We drove four hours one way to see them the previous night in Minneapolis. Now I'm kicking myself for not adding another night and 5 more hours to the trip to see them at Codfish Hollow too. Hauntingly beautiful
You guys are like the Simon & Garfunkle of your generation on steriods, with a side of the Smother's Brothers. Love you! I'll be at your show Oct. 8th at the Ford. Can't wait...Keep on slayin' it!
Wait, so the Milk Carton Kids have been treating their audiences to new songs for their past few shows? I'm so happy the album has a release date, otherwise I'd feel like I've missed out! (I still have been, though. Come back to Virginia!)
The introduction reminds me of the story: Two dogs are looking at a banjo and the one says to the other: "You see that thing? My owner punishes me with it when I do something bad!" "What?" Says the other dog. "Does he hit you with THAT?" "Hit me?" Says the one. "No ... he plays on it!"
Hi guys been watching for a few months I really enjoy your art it takes me back to when I was a young boy my father joined a club called something like Columbia Record’s it was big at the time (mid 60’s) I was born in 1960 so I was 5 or 6 and dad in infinite wisdom let me choose my first album ever it was an album that still soothes my mind and yet haunt’s me just a little knowing after all this time nearly my whole life the same couple of tunes still brings tears to my eyes not because I’m sad or happy rather because I feel those couple of tunes I don’t hear them exactly like every other song rather I am moved perhaps my life is a string of moments that I remember fondly from time to time Thanks Joey and Kenneth for new moments
Love these fine Gents! Ok Must have the info on Kenneth’s guitar? 00? 000? Year? He obviously went bigger to compensate likely for the Gibson. Love it!! Anyone? Thanks.
