John McCauley, Live In Concert : NPR

The Milk Carton Kids, Live In Concert : NPR

Hear The Milk Carton Kids, Live In Concert from their 2013 Newport Folk Festival debut!

Half Simon & Garfunkel and half Smothers Brothers, Joey Ryan and Kenneth Pattengale's melancholic harmonies intertwine beautifully, while their playful, deadpan banter is worth the price of admission on its own.

Gathered with about 50 friends n...
