Podcast 339: The Milk Carton Kids

Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan – the Milk Carton Kids – talk to us this week about the tenth anniversary of their legendary debut album. prolog. We chat about the building of this hugely popular album, the two guitars their career is based on, and their songwriting process. We also hear why they were forced to stop using a single microphone on their shows, their plans for an upcoming album, and more. It’s an insightful and hilarious chat with two of our favorite musicians.
