"Someone Like You" :: MP3 / SoundCloud



This week, The Line of Best Fit premiered the first single from Dream Pop/Shoegaze band, Winter. The group began in Boston, MA when Samira Winter began writing songs and with the help of Nolan Eley produced the Daydreaming EP in 2012. After moving to Los Angeles, the group added more members and started playing live shows alongside Thee Oh Sees, Bleached, and Ought. With Winter relocating to Los Angeles and Eley moving to New York, they continued to make music together remotely and they finished their debut full-length album, Supreme Blue Dream (Lolipop Records).

Being raised in Brazil has also certainly inspired Samira’s songwriting because of the beautiful environment and warm, uplifting culture. The closing track, “Expectations/Exigências” even features Samira singing in both English and Portuguese.  From the fuzzy guitar driven Best Coast inspired track, “Crazy” to mellower “Some Kind of Surprise” which touches on the subject of trying to mend estranged relationships, the album will make you want to cry and fall in love at the same time but most importantly have you bobbing your head along to every track.

Winter’s essence is to make beautiful and dreamy music that connects with your inner child and inspires you to discover yourself. What started out as writing songs while daydreaming under her bedroom Christmas lights has evolved into darker more shoegaze dimension, undoubtedly inspired by Yo La Tengo and My Bloody Valentine. The band’s current lineup consists of Samira Winter on rhythm guitar, Guitarist Matt Hogan, Bassist Edward Breckenridge (Thrice), and Drummer Christina Gaillard (Crown Plaza).

Be sure to check out the very first single, “Someone Like You” which is the synthy, upbeat first track of their debut album, Supreme Blue Dream which will be out on March 10th on Vinyl/CD/Cassette via Echo Park based label, Lolipop Records.
