Then you start the lifelong work of accepting what you did as valid. You make sure there’s nothing you’ll regret. I trust their instincts and will leave you with Kenneth’s own description of this record…. This album solidifies Milk Carton Kids in the pantheon of fabled duos. There is a 10 minute romp through these harmonies and guitar bravery on the “One More for the Road”, a wonderful trip through the moods of the American moment with “Mourning in America”, and a timeless heartbreaker “You Break My Heart.” Jay Bellerose has played with Ray Lamontgane, Robert Plant & Alison Krauss, T-Bone Burnett and a litany of other great recording artists, and his songwise flourishes add a great deal of depth to this new Milk Carton Kids.īut the new players never get in the way of the classic songs and the overwhelming harmonies that are the meat of the album. one of my favorite drummers plays on the record. It is still the precise approach but touches of drums, bass, violin, clarinet. Their new and fourth album, All the Things That I Did and All the Things That I Didn’t Do finds the band expanding their sound by adding a few more players to the recordings. Usually armed with only two voices and two guitars, their songs are an invitation to engage in the intricacies of the modern heart and the world that surrounds us all.

On "Sea of Roses," Kenneth sings alone before Joey brings harmony and comfort to a man pleading to the universe to not to have to die alone. With life's heavy saddle, the members rode into songs about vanishing youth, "Younger Years" and "Mourning in America," a song about social and political despair, "Hope of a Lifetime" that Kenneth wrote about a break up, and the devastating power and beauty of "Sea of Roses," which Kenneth wrote about his recent (and successful) bout with cancer during the making of their record. Playing 1950s guitars - Pattengale actually just got a new Martin signature guitar named for him in July - and singing like 1970s Simon and Garfunkel procreating with Crosby and Stills, The Milk Carton Kids are kids no longer. "There are more instruments on their album, but you don't need any more instruments than their two voices and their two guitars," Mountain Stage host Larry Groce said. Back on June 9, 2019, The Milk Carton Kids made its fourth appearance on Mountain Stage, heard here.
