Milk Lines (married duo Jeff Clarke and Emily Frances Bitze) play a stripped-down, ramshackle form of garage folk equally influenced by psychedelic rock and country. Based in Montreal, the duo began playing shows in 2012, and after receiving notice from bands such as
Fucked Up, they contributed a cover of "Sappy" to an online
Nirvana tribute compilation and released a split 7" with Omhouse in late 2013. Gigs with
Hooded Fang,
Shannon & the Clams, and
Amen Dunes followed, and in 2015
Milk Lines signed to In the Red, which had previously released two albums by Clarke's earlier band
Demon's Claws. A self-titled cassette appeared, and following a fall North American tour with
the King Khan & BBQ Show,
Milk Lines' full-length debut,
Ceramic, was released by In the Red. ~ Paul Simpson
