It’s with great pride and excitement that I would like to introduce Milk & Biscuits into the Big Salad crew. Matty and Max have been good pals for some time now and I’ve always enjoyed their skills in Restlesslist ever since they joined the band a while back. I’ve also had sneaky listens to their solo MySpace demoes over the past couple of years and always thought they had some more secret gems up their sleeves.

Turns out I was right as last Summer and Autumn the pair got together along with some likeminded musical friends in Matty’s loft to record the songs that will make up Balcony Times, their debut release on Big Salad Records. It’s a dreamy, relaxed affair, full of lush harmonies, languorous tempos and sunny moods that will raise your spirits and calm anxieties in equal measure.

There are also some fantastic guest appearances from other well known Brighton acts to be heard on the twenty-five minute mini-LP, including contributions from members of Brakes, Jenifer Left, Crown on Rats and BSR’s own Foxes!.

Matty is preparing some beautiful homemade CDRs for us, and there will be a limited number (100) available through the Big Salad Records shop, which is opening soon. The official release date for Balcony Times on CDR and digital download from all good online retailers is 5th December 2011.
