Acoustic-Electric Guitars
Winterpills
Album DescriptionWinterpills bring you a tender, filigreed sound, a humming and a fragmentation of warmth and chill, a delicate suspension of belief. They are a band playing you songs of pretty losses and hollow hopefulness. They formed on a bare wood floor during a winter when mutual friends and potential enemies met to nurse wounds, drink, ignore the obvious, play other people’s songs, and found they had their own. They now give them to you in all their friendly, angry, wimpy, moody. . . More >>

I can’t stop playing pills for sara. My wife & I love it. I first heard it on the CD from Paste Magazine #19.
good harmonies, good clear guitar playing. talented group i hope to hear more from.
I bought this cd based solely on the Washington Post review. This is BEAUTIFUL music–perfect for a lazy sunday afternoon.
I was introduced to Winterpills by a friend in New Jersey, who raved about this CD. He was right. This is truly magnificent music. There is something quite classic in the blending of the vocals that is magical. Just listen to “Pills for Sara” “Laughing” and “Found Weekend” and your soul will be stirred. While others are comparing them to newer bands, I hear sixties Mamas and Papas and Its a Beautiful Day in there. The songs are timeless and expansive. If this came out in the sixties, it would be considered a classic today. Yes, it is that good. Do not hesitate in picking this one up. A+++
An amazing album that will haunt you with achingly beautiful melodies and intelligent lyrics. Reminiscent of both Elliot Smith and Radiohead, songs like “Pills for Sara” and “Threshing Machine” will stick with you. I had the good fortune to see this band at Falcon Ridge Folk Festival and they were one of the highlights of the weekend.
