History

Milk was formed in early 2008 with Claire Robbin, Adam Stark and Tom Barton. James Whyard later replaced Barton on bass.

The band released a self-titled EP in 2009. Rock Sound magazine reviewed the EP in 2010, saying "there's no doubting this band's musical chops"[2] and giving it 8/10. The band has been featured in the Bands to Watch series of The Blue Walrus[3] and received reviews in Organ (magazine). The band has also received airplay of a track from the EP, 20th Century Lights, on commercial radio station Xfm.

The band will shortly be supporting The Klaxons.
