| Enigmatic UK experimental folk duo MILKWEED make their Toronto debut with LostWorldSounds at BSMT 254 on Tuesday, March 31. Check the clips! |
Here's the scoop from Not Dead Yet...
Over the past year, the world has finally started to catch up to MILKWEED. The anonymous duo has spent the last several years mining literary rarities and dismantling the code wrapped within them, finding new futures for stories unheard. Self-described as ‘slacker-trad,’ many are starting to see it for what it is - rethinking of tradition, dissolution of old modes and a true blur between the found and the created. Where do stories come from and who gets to tell them? All wrapped in gauzy loops, damaged percussion and distant melody. Watch the accompanying video for MILKWEED's "Folklore 1979" created by Greg Butler and Oh Kestrel Films below. You can find MILKWEED's three releases, 2025's Remscéla, 2024's Folklore 1979 and 2023's The Mound People, on Bandcamp right here.
They’ll be joined by Toronto’s own psychedelic folk wanderer, Michelle Breslin aka LostWorldSounds, who uses field recording and sound collage to recreate the feelings of the world around them. Michelle Breslin's releases, including 2025's Stranger Butterflies – which seems well suited to MILKWEED – are available on Bandcamp right here. Watch a LostWorldSounds performance below.
Advance tickets for Not Dead Yet's presentation of MILKWEED's Toronto debut with LostWorldSounds at BSMT 254 (254 Lansdowne) on Tuesday, March 31 at 7 pm are $24.94 and available right here.
