Making something cool is easy. But making something that matters is almost impossible. Being told over and over again during their latest tour supporting their debut album, “Your band saved my life” and “Your songs have kept me going when I thought I couldn’t anymore,” friends and bandmates Pat Kiloran, Jack Vondrachek, and John Ogelby somehow stumbled into something that they never expected from their typo-coined music project that started as a satirical joke: the real power of art. After releasing their first single in the summer of 2017, MILKK was quickly championed underground by music fans and press alike as a band that had something different.  There was no big PR campaign, no major label, no secret industry connection. But starting with dozens, to hundreds, to thousands, somehow people kept hearing about the Nashville & Minneapolis-based group with the misspelled name. With an album (#3 Alternative, #50 US Albums), two EPs (several tracks featured on Spotify editorial playlists), three US tours (sold out shows + merch lines), and an ever- growing (albeit chaotic) social media presence, MILKK is back again with a new wave of self-produced, always evolving tracks. A stark left-turn from their previous alt-pop proclivities, MILKK’s new music makes it clear that the band has once again expanded their influences, pulling limitlessly from rap trends to Japanese anime to high fashion. Regardless of the changes within the music itself, there’s one thing that will always remain with MILKK: a love for the people who care about them and a passion for creating things that mean everything to someone.
