> The name may be Winter, but the sound is endless summer! The LA-based pop band, with their dazzling sound and looks, has completed their masterpiece second album, which encapsulates eternal youth!

"If only I could have listened to songs like this on my Walkman when I was in a dark city.
It feels like it will blend into the warm, sticky air." - Ayaka Tatamino (Homecomings)
Led by vocalist Samira Winter, who has an American father and a Brazilian mother, the LA four-piece band Winter has completed their long-awaited second album, three years after their masterpiece debut album "Supreme Blue Dream" (2015)! In addition to her own work, Samira has also participated as a guest vocalist in former Real Estate guitarist Matt's solo project Ducktails and The Go! Team. This band has been described as "Lolita Shoegaze" due to her exceptionally cute looks and sweet, languid singing voice. However, what is truly amazing is their songwriting sense. A bittersweet melody filled with a faint sadness swims in a sea of refreshing shoegaze guitars, splashing with sparkling water... It's like a sound image of the dazzling summer scenery depicted in a youth movie, and it brings listeners a sense of comfort and sentimentality that stands out among the many girl's dream pop and shoegaze bands.
