The Milk Carton Kids To Release Live Concert DVD April 29th
The Milk Carton Kids are set to release a new concert DVD entitled “The Milk Carton Kids Live From Lincoln Theatre”. The film documents the Grammy-nominated duo's performance at the historic Lincoln Theatre in Columbus, Ohio, featuring their celebrated vocal harmonies, intricate guitar work, and deadpan wit.
The DVD arrives on April 29th as a stand alone DVD, as well as included in a deluxe version of the duo's acclaimed album The Ash & Clay, and as a digital download. The film serves as an apt introduction for the uninitiated and an ideal memento for existing fans.

The past months have seen The Milk Carton Kids profile decidedly on the rise. Their latest album The Ash & Clay was nominated for a Grammy and they turned in stand-out performances on Austin City Limits, A Prairie Home Companion, and The Americana Music Awards. In addition, the duo was singled out for praise when they appeared at T-Bone Burnett and the Coen brothers’ “Another Day Another Time” concert at New York's Town Hall celebrating the music of Inside Llewyn Davis - an event which continues to air on Showtime. Their recent performance at The Allen Room in NYC as part of The Lincoln Center's American Songbook series was featured in The New York Times Magazine, which compared them to The Everly Brothers and Simon and Garfunkel before writing, “With vintage guitars and matching tailored suits, and backdropped by a spectacular view of Columbus Circle and a snowy Central Park, Ryan and Pattengale projected a kind of old-fashion authenticity in an Auto-Tune world.”
This DVD will also be available at their shows as the band embarks on their national tour starting April 14 in Nashville, TN.
