The Milk Carton Kids é um duo folk contemporâneo de Los Angeles, Califórnia. Kenneth Pattengale e Joey Ryan formaram o grupo no começo de 2011, arquivando suas carreiras solo em favor de um projeto colaborativo que focou em vocais harmonizados, violões acústicos entrelaçados e composições de raízes. Desde o começo, The Milk Carton Kids trabalharam rápido, lançando um álbum ao vivo (Retrospect) em março de 2011 e retornando três meses depois com seu primeiro álbum de estúdio, Prologue.
Quatro anos de trabalho duro!Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!
