Greetings, From a freezing cold London evening. It's almost Jack The Ripper-esque. Our band, The MilkBar formed last spring over a drink at an open mic in Islington, North London. After seeing many performers on the night, we decided to form a 3 piece, harking back to the days of late 602s Garage Rock N Roll drawing from the influence table of bands like The Sonics, through to The Clash and Joy Division in the 702s & 802s through the grunge and Strokes' era through to 2/3/12. After our first gig to one man and a bluebottle, we've [...]
San Francisco-based outfit Zodiac Death Valley is headlining an evening of rock and roll at Milk Bar on January 26th, 2013. With a sound that bridges psychedelic blues rock with moody country flavors, ZDV will top off a lineup that includes San Francisco's own psychedelic, space rock band Hollow Mirrors and the blues rock bandits of Down and Outlaws , who are currently wrapping up their first EP. Also on the lineup is The [...]

The Milk Bar is an alternative Indie Rock Band from London in England. Leon Milk , Ben Sands and Ginger Drage played Open Mic nights until earlier in 2012 they decided to make a break for it. The Milk Bar This is a sound with which I am immediately able to identify. Simply shrouded sounds weave their waves in to the room landing in the ears like a homing pigeon. The music is laid out in easy to understand compositions and the [...]
Enjoy an evening of eclectic electronic music with Giraffage , James & Evander , Astronautica , and Young Pharaohs at Milk Bar on Thursday, July 5th, presented by Salty SF.

His quick fingers fire off shimmering pop triggers, [...]

(Right Link + "Save Link As" = Download) James & Evander - "Constellating" The Fling - "Wanderingfoot" Mister Loveless - "The Old Pain" I saw 3 fantastic acts last night at Milk Bar and wanted to share my findings. As you'll be able to tell from the tracks shared above, James & Evander have a far different sound from the other acts and as the opener for the night, their synth-pop was exactly what this audience needed to get in motion. In April, the [...]

Born in the '90's - Mister Loveless I love watching a young band develop right before your eyes, as we've had the pleasure of watching Oakland's MISTER LOVELESS do since falling for their high school material almost five years ago. The band are now out of high school, and can buy their own drinks, and they are even headlining next week's RUMBLE: SAN FRANCISCO party at Milk Bar . They've gone from their dark and gothy, release the bats-esque - almost Bauhuas sound of " [...]
