They've got three albums of this stuff, and I love it. Kind of reminds me of the way Nickel Creek fired up a modern spin on the old bluegrass tradition. These guys took the old, musty folk singer sound and shined it up a bit while staying pretty faithful to the genre. If you feel so inclined, you can download their first two albums for free on their website (http://themilkcartonkids.com/).

The Milk Carton Kids
Not an ACL 2014 review, but a friend invited me to go to their show at the Paramount at the end of this month, so I thought I'd check them out. Fantastic folky duo, really reminds me of Simon & Garfunkle or other 60's folk music. Great harmony over simple and pretty music.
