Yes...it's a brave new world out there. There is more to life than FM pop radio waiting for those bold enough to use a computer in some form.

I was able to catch them a few years ago when they were touring with Sarah Jarosz. They were terrific — thanks for posting.

This is hilarious. A sly parody of someone I won't mention since politics are off limits.

I love the Milk Carton Kids! Funny, killer harmonies, great tones, and great playing!

Love it, hilarious!

Man I'm kicking myself. I also first heard them watching the concert that was tied to the movie Inside Llewyn Davis and really dug what they are all about. I decided I would try to catch them next time they come through Atlanta but it had sort of fallen off my radar.

Turns out they are playing here Monday night but it's already sold out and tickets are going for over $100 per on the secondary market.

I typically don't go to concerts during the week but man, I think I would have made an exception in this case....

I'm a big fan of theirs and have been listening to their back catalog a lot lately. Any idea what strings Kenneth Pattengale uses?

On a related note, if you dig them, check out this full concert on youtube.

Simon & Garfunkel is exactly who they remind me of - so great to see such pure talent emerge - hope springs eternal ... they'll break out even bigger soon, no doubt.

Thanks for sharing.

They do have an old sound, but I'm a sucker for folk music. I appreciate the vocals of Penny and Sparrow more, but these guys are good! Thank you for sharing!
