Sarah Lee Guthrie and Johnny Irion were joined by Winterpills for the latest session from Sleepover Shows in Boston.

You can now stream Winterpills' gorgeous new album All My Lovely Goners on their bandcamp.

Today we're premiering the gorgeous song "Minxy" from Winterpills' upcoming album All My Lovely Goners, which you can now exclusively stream on their AP.net profile. This is the band's fourth full length and their best one yet, so I highly recommend listening to this infectious indie-pop gem. And if you like what you hear, please make sure to support the band. Enjoy.

We all listen to and love many bands that don't get much attention from the general population, and I think it would be a fair assumption to say that our love for said bands is what often brings us together on music sites such as this. There are many bands I could list off of the top of my head that make me wonder, "How is this band not more popular?" whenever I listen to their music, but there are a few who really stand out. For me, one of those bands would be the Winterpills, and you could say that their Kickstarter campaign is what has inspired this post. This is a band that I have followed for the past seven years, and I have yet to see them achieve the success that they deserve...

Winterpills, one of our favourite indie pop bands, need your help. If you love your vinyl collection as much as I do, then you'll know what a big difference this would make for a record. So please help out if you can, because their gorgeous new album All My Lovely Goners most definitely deserves it.

Winterpills will release their new album All My Lovely Goners on February 14th.

We recently had Eva (iplaydrums) interview Winterpills, who are currently in the studio recording a new full length. Head over here to read it, and check out their wonderful Tuxedo of Ashes EP that came out last year.

From The Interview

The bulk of these songs were written a year and a half ago. We’ve done two albums where we’ve had half the songs when we went into the studio. And that was fine. Our very first album was songs that we’d been playing for a year and a half and we knew them very well. And when we did the next album, we really wanted to know the songs like that. We didn’t want to concoct them in the studio and not be able to play them later and sort of hate them. So that was...

Winterpills have announced that their new EP Tuxedo Of Ashes will come out on September 14th.

I will be interviewing Winterpills in the next few days, so feel free to post any questions you may have in the replies.
