Kenneth Pattengale + Christina Alden & Alex Patterson

Thu 14 May 2026
Musician holding an acoustic guitar in a graffiti-covered backstage hallway.

Kenneth Pattengale, best known as one half of The Milk Carton Kids, returns to the stage solo for the first time in sixteen years. A distinctive guitarist, singer, and producer, he has spent the past decade and a half refining a musical language defined by precision, restraint, and emotional clarity.

This rare solo appearance isn’t a step away from anything so much as a step into new creative ground, where his songwriting and guitar work can unfold with uncommon freedom. Intimate and quietly daring, it offers a vivid glimpse of an artist charting a new path.

Two figures, Christine Alden and Alex Patterson, stand in the centre of the image , turned slight to one side. The closer person has a green jacket and tartan scarf and blonde hair tied up. The person behind her wears a black, duffel coat and jumper, they have jaw length brown hair. In the background, there is green foliage.
