Milk Teeth

Monday 06 April 2020, 7:30pm - 11pm

The Waterfront Studio

We are incredibly sorry to announce our April tour with @pottymouthworld and @kojisaysaloha will not being going ahead due to the spread of COVID-19, we have a responsibility to keep those most at risk safe right now and it would be irresponsible of us to go ahead and tour.

Please be kind to promoters and venues right now as they have also lost work and income - this is not their fault. Be kind to each other at a time the world feels in chaos. Support the self employed where you’re able to and only use the NHS if it’s absolutely needed.

Our NHS was already under strain before the break out of this virus and will be under immense pressure in the height of public fear. We send love to all of you who have continued to support us and ask you to be kind to your communities in a time of global struggle

British punk band Milk Teeth have set aside the usual fast and loud sonic template in favor of the thick distorted guitars, downbeat but catchy melodies, and shifting dynamics of '90 grunge and indie rock. Milk Teeth hail from Stroud, Gloucestershire, England, where lead singer and bassist Becky Blomfield, guitarist and vocalist Josh Bannister, and drummer Oli Holbrook attended the same school. All three were passionate about music, and they were part of a circle of friends who often helped one another out with various projects.

In early 2013, Bannister and Holbrook had been working on songs together and recorded a set of demos; the tape won the attention of guitarist Chris Webb, who turned the duo into a trio, and when Bannister invited Blomfield to join the group, they adopted the name Milk Teeth, taken from a song by the Japanese Voyeurs. Milk Teeth released a digital single, "Vanilla," in May 2013, and their first EP, Smiling Politely, appeared three months later. The group's early recordings received an enthusiastic response, and they began touring regularly throughout the U.K. and Europe.

April 2015 brought a second EP, Sad Sack, and the release was successful enough that well-established American punk label Hopeless Records signed the group and gave Sad Sack an international re-release.

In November 2015, Milk Teeth issued a new single, "Brickwork," as a preview of their first full-length album, Vile Child, which was released on January 29, 2016. However, shortly before the album's arrival, Milk Teeth announced that Josh Bannister had left the band, and that guitarist Billy Hutton would be sitting in for him on the group's upcoming live dates in support of the album. Early 2017 saw the band secure a deal with Roadrunner Records and issue the EP Be Nice, followed by a second extended player, Go Away, later that November.
