The Milk Carton Kids


The Milk Carton Kids is an indie folk duo from Eagle Rock, California, consisting of singers and guitarists Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan, who formed the group in early 2011.  Artists Ryan and Pattengale formed a duo after Ryan attended a solo performance by Pattengale in their shared hometown.  Both had long and largely unsuccessful careers as solo performers behind them, and each had reached a professional crossroads.” (Source: Wiki)

  1. I’m at the other end of the spectrum from Bonnie–just enjoying my first cup of coffee, rubbing the sleep from my eyes as I listen to the sound of soft rainfall and the dogs enjoy their breakfast. A perfect, easy melody to ease me into my day. 🙂 loved it. Thx pal–have a great Friday! 🙂

  2. A perfect accompaniment to a sunrise or a sunset, a glass of wine or a cup of coffee. Easing into or out of the day, this is lovely.

  4. My husband is away on a business trip this week. Usually, I enjoy having the alone time. This week, though, I’ve felt lonely, and I felt the sadness of the song.
