The Milk present ‘No Interruptions’, a blazingly soulful return signalling the release of their second album.

Sometimes it takes a few bumps to find the right direction; often it involves experience, guts and self-belief to trust yourself and venture from one to find another. The Milk are a band that believe with utter conviction that they've now found their way. Fuelled by a rediscovery of the music and artists that originally inspired their formation, the four walls of their studio were ablaze with a soundtrack of Bill Withers, Isaac Hayes and the Isley Brothers throughout the songwriting process. ‘No Interruptions’ was one of the first songs written for this new album.

“This song provided us with a tone, musical flavour and a lyrical yardstick to which all of the other tracks had to have in common. The song is about defiance and retribution, emotions that were common in the studio at that time.”
- Rick Dunn

The Bee's Paul Butler, who proved his production mastery with Michael Kiwanuka's Mercury Prize nominated debut, invited the band to record at Chale Abbey, a medieval barn on the Isle of Wight. Guided by Butler, the sessions here captured the genuine version of The Milk: the sounds and honesty of soul.

Eager to share their new songs, ‘Deliver Me’ was released as free download and limited 7” single in November 2014 - finding its way onto the playlists of BBC 6 Music’s Lauren Laverne, Huey Morgan and Gilles Peterson - while The Milk’s dedicated fans packed out Tufnell Park’s The Dome for the band’s triumphant live return.

With their second album set for release this autumn, The Milk take to the stage on 2nd July for an intimate show at Hackney’s Oslo to unveil their new songs in full for the first time.

Trouble Gonna Bring Me Down

"An atmospheric return" - Clash Music 
"Between the latest incarnation of Arctic Monkeys and a soulful Paolo Nutini" - Gigwise
 "Unadulterated Stax-style soul...they sound like a band that’ s just finding their groove" - The Line Of Best Fit

Sometimes it takes a few bumps to find the right direction; often it involves experience, guts and self-belief to trust yourself and venture from one to find another. The Milk are a band that believe with utter conviction that they've now found their way.  

“Our second record, like many others before us, has been a life affirming but at times painful experience. For  all  the  good we  did  on  our  first  record, we  felt  that  there we're  many  unanswered  questions.  It  was important that this album put the record straight, not just for our fans and peers but for ourselves.”- Dan Legresley

 Fuelled by a rediscovery of the music and artists that originally inspired their formation, the four walls of their studio were ablaze  with a soundtrack of Bill Withers, Isaac Hayes and the Isley Brothers throughout the songwriting process for their new album.   From the swagger of symphonic opener ‘ Wanderlust’  to heartfelt ballad ‘ Lose That Way’  to the thunderous blues of the closing title track; The Milk’ s confidence in these songs and their execution is clearly audible. Captured in a tireless outburst of creativity at the end of 2014, ‘ Favourite Worry’  is The Milk at their soulful, honest and engaging best. 

“‘ Favourite Worry’  is born from the difficulties that everyone feels as they move through life, the dreams that falter, the friendships that struggle or the love that falls away. Each song is born from this very personal atonement that each of us has had to reconcile ourselves with. It was vital that the record demonstrate the many years we have played together, the blood harmonies and sibling rhythm section. Just as importantly the need for the sound to reach deep into the guts of the listener, as so many of our influences do, was always at the forefront.”- Dan Legresley

Eager  to  share  their  new  songs, ‘ Deliver  Me’   was  released  as  a    limited  7”  single  in  November  2014  - finding its  way  onto  the  playlists  of  BBC  6  Music’ s  Lauren  Laverne,  Huey  Morgan  and Gilles  Peterson  - while The Milk’ s dedicated fans packed out Tufnell Park’ s The Dome for the band’ s triumphant live return. The band unveiled their new songs in full for the first time to an intimate sold out show at Hackney’ s Oslo in July to  coincide  with the  release  of  single ‘ No  Interruptions’ ,  one  of  the first  songs  written for  'Favourite Worry'. 

“‘ No Interruptions’  provided us with a tone, musical flavour and a lyrical yardstick to which all of the other tracks on the album had to have in common. The song is about defiance and retribution, emotions that were common in the studio at that time.”- Rick Nunn

Guided by Butler, the sessions captured the genuine version of The Milk: the sounds and honesty of soul. 

"There’ s a lot to love about The Milk. Pretty much family they’ ve been together so long, all have a focused passion on making the band work. They’ re equal in what each bring to the team, they practice more than any band I’ ve met. They know what they want now, which is source of the real magic. That quality in bands is becoming rarer, but they’ ve got it now.”
- Paul Butler (Producer)
