tunesday - the milk carton kids

The best cure for long weekend withdrawals is some soothing tunes to ease you into the working week, so we're writing you a prescription for a hefty dose of The Milk Carton Kids.

The indie folk duo from Eagle Rock, California, have just wrapped up their first ever tour on Australian soil, but it's not too late to bask in their gentle finger-picking and drifty vocal harmonies. Focusing on vintage guitars and heartache-soothing storytelling, they make the kind of ditties that would soundtrack a stretch of solo driving quite perfectly, so it's pretty fitting that their latest film clips feature people wheeling around town, listening to their music.
