The Milk Carton Kids perform "Snake Eyes" from Showtime's "Another Day Another Time"

[@mahoganyhollow]

Praise the camera man for noticing and having for the foresight to say "I'm going to capture this audience in absolute aw as much as I am the performers". Every single one of those talents in their own right knew exactly what they were witnessing.

[@Mr_Joshua73]

Thank YOU for saying exactly what I was feeling! Gave me a chill and I believe a tear was forming lol. Those two are truly something special... I'm glad I'm not the only one who sees it. Damn.

[@rhiannonleehudson]

Chris Thile grinning from ear to ear is so precious

[@virginiaseybold]

Their dry wit and devastating sarcasm is what gives me life. I saw them live last year and nearly peed my pants. Also, their talent is just mind blowing. Their music is GORGEOUS.

[@jaygatsby1]

Yes. Everything they do seems effortlessly genuine and natural. And without the dry, self deprecating wit there incredible singing and playing might seem pretentious. The context they create with their gentle (and hilarious) banter is a note perfect way of stripping the music of any sense of overwrought self importance. Really, really like these dudes.

[@sohopixie6]

I enjoyed them live so much. I cried it was so gorgeous. And they are hysterically funny

[@MrLiLkittie]

There's just so much respect for one another in that room

[@sarahwhite796]

I wish the song weren't so much quieter than the talk around it! But thank you so much for this clip, I've got to find a way to see this special.

[@jaredduke9226]

Imagine how intimidated they were. And they absolutely killed it.

[@ljm792]

I love how you can see the terror there faces at the beginning

[@DavesCoverSongs]

A great example of the power a quiet, compelling song can have on a room.

[@ChuckRobbins]

This was a highlight of Another Day, Another Time that aired on Showtime last weekend. Produced by T Bone Burnett and the Coen Brothers. It is a music special not to be missed.

[@joshualoveless20]

It was even on Netflix at one time.

[@strangebirdsir]

To see musicians being affected by music is such an amazing thing. Rarely do we get to see this. There is a reason that the Milk Carton Kids are at the top of my "Best Of" list for 2013. This song is one of them. Simply Amazing.

[@viiviiixxtactic]

This is the most amazing performance I've seen in a very long time. It just moves me and restores my faith in music...

[@virginiaseybold]

This clip is what brought me to them. My aunt showed it to me and I nearly started crying. Tonight I saw them for the second time and I cannot wait to see them again. Gorgeous!!!!!

[@LtFrankDrebin100]

The entire night was like that. I musta watched the Another Day Another Time concert 10 times over in it’s entirety. That doesn’t even count the hundreds of times I’ve pulled up some of the individual performances on KZbin. Marcus Mumford’s I Was Young When I Left Home from that show was like the best he ever sang anything. Well worth the $3.99 purchase from KZbin if you haven’t seen the whole concert. If viewed however it is almost guaranteed to induce a lengthy yet rewarding Dave Rawlings Machine deep dive.

[@theL81Again]

Mumford still cracks me up. “Do another one.”

[@andrewboyce4495]

Marcus Mumford with tears in his eyes says it all...

[@wudnhed58]

Marcus Mumford was moved to tears

[@JasonUmbrellabird]

Mumford can't believe how lucky he is.

[@rustyshacklefort3715]

When a room full of musicians who are all beyond reproach in talent ask someone to play another song. You know they are amazing, I don’t think there is a better compliment than that.

[@artdonovandesign]

The power and poetry of genuine music. Be well!

[@ljw2909]

Mesmerizing. I have been listening to their music and watching such clips for hours every day since first seeing this. Thank you, Joey and Kenneth, and the filmmakers.

[@rascalpa1]

This music will take you to somewhere haven't been in a while. The emotion is different for everyone, but this song and their voices and guitar work grabs at my soul......I got tears too...........can't wait to hear them live........

[@strummedout]

Damn. When the Punch Brothers are in the room and they are wiping away tears, you've really brought it home. Bravo! Can't wait to finally see you guys live this Thursday. *hug, hug, little kiss, big kiss*

[@sarahl7963]

This is my favorite song by them, what a haunting melody done with such harmony it gives goosebumps the first time you you listen, wow :-)

[@sueecavanau]

I fell in love with The Milk Carton Kids after seeing the Showtime special Another Day Another Time. I have their music on repeat 24/7. I bought tickets for their Austin show in May. They are so divine. I'm totally obsessed.

[@virginiaseybold]

I read this and went, "Wait a minute-- Aunt Sue?!" 👏😍🙏👍

[@ReynoldsWrap625]

God, the song, the emotions, Marcus. This video is beautiful.

[@pamspiano8]

Snake Eyes is the first song I heard by the Milk Carton Kids, and it's still my favorite!! Such excellent musicianship, yet they are both so relatable. My favorite group by far......

[@darrendavis1415]

Great stuff

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

Two things I love about this clip- the extremely deadpan humor at the very beginning (seriously, I almost couldn't tell if he was joking or not), and the moment during the performance when the camera panned to show everyone watching & listening. Chris Thile grinning like crazy, and Marcus Mumford in tears... wow. I must say this song didn't do much for me, but if they had everyone in the room so connected like that, they must be good.

[@joeboonmusic4004]

You should listen to the rest of their music, they're a gift to the music industry. Super lovely and funny guys too.

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

I'd like to! Since watching this clip I've seen a couple other of their performances on KZbin and I enjoyed them.

[@KeelyBurnMusic]

Two years later: I've seen the Milk Carton Kids twice in one month, will gladly see them as many times as I can in the future, and am completely in love with all their albums. They are, in fact, good.

[@Allie870]

Kenneth's smile just made me beam too.

[@atticusfist7953]

What's amazing here is their approach to this song is loose but they are so tight in their singing and their guitar work. As awesome a duo as S&G.

[@RobertWeber-oz6df]

Who are they?

[@virginiaseybold]

Saw them again just this evening.... Incredible, as always!!

[@TheOilkd]

Just look at the reactions from the other musicians. We saw them Live after this and they were fabulous.

[@sheilachapman1779]

I saw these guys live - Fantastic!!

[@greagandev]

Damn. Those are some nice sounding guitars.

[@Unplugged70]

Man, they stole the show with this.

[@xoindigold]

Still can't get over the fact that they had Marcus choked up like that

[@coriwallace4365]

So dreamy 🥰

[@frankie_CALB]

Real music and songwriting at its best.

[@emilyogilvie3581]

Marcus Mumford Crying at 1:30 OMG.

[@warrensekula8886]

My favorite Milk Carton Kids song!!!!

[@jonathanhenson314]

beyond amazing!

[@johnozed]

Brilliant.

[@cassiadocos9719]

Love this. Just fantastic.

[@Ravenswraith]

Chills.

[@mfloridays]

Lovely!

[@oitsamy]

Wow. Thanks.

[@canefan17]

The first line just grabs you right away. Swing lowwww swing lowwww For to carry me home

[@userbeverage]

Beautiful!

[@brianflora2036]

I wonder if they'll ever release these rehearsal sessions as an album in itself?

[@fastback57deloach27]

Yes...brilliant

[@lazlosalami5321]

1:27 I love this moment so much

[@IrishEire]

Isn’t that just the absolute cutest?! 🥹❤️

[@RpgplayersInc]

Awesome, even Chris Thile is there!

[@alexanderbean471]

Pure, unadulterated talent. Bravo, indeed

[@DavesCoverSongs]

Wow. That’s what you call “a moment”.

[@ryanfoley123]

Joe's suit is so great. Somebody ask Joe who makes his suits.

[@hbilha]

Haha The one with the glasses and long hair was so good with his sarcasm that the other one was like: "dude? wtf?". 0:22

[@moleratical1232]

That's just their schtick,

[@pieter1502]

Beautifull, tears in my eyes. (Fisherman friends…)

[@zanetams70]

I think that this is the only time mr. Davis smiled in the entire documentary.

[@repairedham]

A lot of moist eyes during this song including, I have to admit, my own.

[@andywbarwick]

Grand

[@LuigiTerrorMilk]

Is that Ethan Coen at the end of the clip?

[@profolactic]

Great song. Almost sounds like it should be sung in spanish.

[@breico8535]

Marcus: “Do anotha one.”

[@AAparallel]

Chris Thile likes it. :D

[@yadgadge]

They toured as the openers for Punch Brothers this last year, what an awesome show that was.

[@jackoo666]

me too marcus, me too.

[@gwynnielsen5081]

How could he have NEVER heard of Simon and Garfunkel? I'm guessing he is just being verbally ironic. Ha, ha, ha. I do love the music. Anything remotely similar to S&G is still awesome.

[@melvinlee5684]

Harmonizing like the Everly brothers. They probably never heard of them until someone told them of the comparison.

[@judsonh1949]

Simon & Garfunkel? Yes. But, do I hear some strong Everly Brothers influence in there ...

[@brucemorgen9667]

Lots of Gillian Welch and David Rawlings too -- the guitar work is very siimilar to David's, but I agree the vocals are more like S&G and/or the Everlys.

[@joshnuse9219]

Ooohhh yeeaaahh

[@adamkeenan5707]

I don’t think they’re intentionally influenced just coincidentally happen to sound similar

[@hecknoogod6109]

Ha ha ha sound of silence

[@dianehillier2336]

Thank you for having the courage to sing sad songs.

[@Sanger500]

They are not entirely old school. If you listen to their three albums, you will hear some Gomez, Ryan Adams, and Sufjan Stevens as well.

[@mikemelczak7588]

"Do another one"

[@ipekyavuz3518]

Here I dare say those guys are way better than Simon and Garfunkel. Not that I would care about it at all. But you read it all the time. How about just enjoying their talent like Mumford does ...like Chris Thile does ...

[@DevinsGuitarCovers]

sounds similar to the Everly Brothers :)

[@ZenMastaKai]

Everly Brothers reincarnated...finally!!!

[@j8ded]

wheres the breakdown

[@LedZeppelinIsrad]

I like jokes

[@williamfreimuth]

What Ulysses listened to...before he derided Prometheus?.

[@flyingsword135]

Shovel and rope

[@kingkolunikus1962]

The fucking editing though. Why insert that SImon and Garfunkel quote into a spot when the song has already begun?

[@RS54321]

We have the piles of garbage from Tik Tok, which should be banished from Earth, then we have rare gems like this...more of the latter, please.

[@EarthBenderMab]

How can you not have heard of Simon and Garfunkle, that's a parenting fail right there.. nice voices on you wains.

[@spleeenb4uwere551]

Sarcasm bro

[@johnobrien8585]

Wow, I hope you’ve learned about sarcasm in the three years since you posted this comment… Otherwise, your life is gonna take forever…

[@iamnotanuggetblackhart5103]

What some clickbait bullshit! I assumed this was going to be a cover of Trouble's "Snake Eyes" from Showtime's Twin Peaks The Return...but instead its this random ass song that has nothing to do with the song I was looking for. Don't EVER use "Showtime" and "Snake Eyes" in the same way with a cutoff title, because you're just going to piss people off.
