The Milk Carton Kids – August 30th – Swallow Hill

Estimated read time 4 min read

The Milk Carton Kids put on an excellent show at Swallow Hill last week and they left people with non-stop laughs, even better sounding versions of their recorded songs, and a whole preview of a new album. The duo’s voices fit so well together it’s hard to believe that they could have never met. It was more than anyone could have asked for. In the past year acts like The Civil Wars have taken off and The Milk Carton Kids, based on the quality of their live work, should be the next folk duo to break into the mainstream.

The Felice Brothers – October 17th – The Hi-Dive

Estimated read time 6 min read

The Felice Brothers didn’t chat with the crowd last Monday at The Hi-Dive; there was a lot of agitation and rawness coming from the stage, as if their Americana punk was being played in a boxing ring. These guys are proud, authentic, tough, brilliant, raw, emotional, and real Catskill thugs. Their energy was infectious and intimidating. They played as if they preferred no one to be there, and we danced like we wouldn’t want to be anywhere else.
