“TWSM was formed in 2008 by Eric Ambrosius and Boone Howard as they rushed to record their debut lo-fi song disc Bonjour before leaving on a under-prepared, under-informed, under-financed single-speed bike journey to Canada. Torn achilles heels and a lost debit card ended their trip at a crack hostel in Vancouver, where the boys found a ride through Western Canada back to their home state of Alaska. Three years later after some truly awful house shows, train trips, off-and-on members, and moonlighting with other bands, the Milk finally caught their stride with the addition of Oregonian bass player Travis Leipzig in 2011 (when sister EPs Jesuses and SUH got the band their first stamps of blogosphere approval). Now TWSM’s scene-stoking, party-enhancing, friend-making mission is paying off with some gigs the boys used to refer to as “real shows.” The music is either riff-driven or slow-burning, but always focused on the songs… their 90′s-influenced, Dylan/Newman/Lennon ripoff, butt rock jam-out songs.”
