L.A. folk-pop quintet Milo Greene went straight for the sweet spot with their first two songs, the insistent “1957” and buoyant “Don’t You Give Up on Me.” Now the band, formed from the shards of Links, the Outline and the college friendship of Robbie Arnett, Andrew Heringer and Marlana Sheetz, gets all … well, autumnal, on “Autumn Tree,” which builds from a simple acoustic ballad with lilting harmonies into a swell of mushy goodness. Glow on.
