The Milk Carton Kids will release their new album, Monterey, May 19 through ANTI-Records. The Colorado folk duo’s third studio album follows their last LP, The Ash & Clay, which was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Folk Album in 2013. 


Rather than going the traditional studio route, Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan recorded Monterey in various concert venues across the country including Nashville’s famed Downtown Presbyterian Church, often times setting up during the day in empty rooms prior to taking the same stage for an evening gig. Recording while on tour, the pair self-produced the 11 new tracks that make up the album. Pattengale and Ryan have made the title track available, stream it below.
