INDIE ROCK/FOLK WINTERPILLS Q&A WITH JONATHAN LETHEM IN VULTURE AS NPR PERFORMANCE/CHAT TO AIR MAY 3

BAND ANNOUNCES VINYL REISSUE OF SELF-TITLED DEBUT ALBUM WITH BONUS TRACK ON DATE

NORTHEAST TOUR DATES CONTINUE AS WINTERPILLS ADDED TO GREEN RIVER FEST JULY 10

New York Times-bestselling novelist Jonathan Lethem and Winterpills songwriter and lead singer Philip Price engage in a fascinating Q&A in Vulture that touches on films and paintings; the dynamic between the husband-wife duo that leads the band; the influence of Elliott Smith; and the larger sonic scale of new album ‘Love Songs’ (Signature Sounds): http://www.vulture.com/2016/04/jonathan-lethem-interviews-winterpills-frontman.html

NPR World Café has set a date for the indie rock/folk band’s performance chat on May 3. A Relix Magazine “On the Verge” profile is planned.

Meanwhile, northeast tour dates continue including in May in Philadelphia and Washington, D.C. as the band was added to Green River Festival on July 10, the same date at the Tedeschi Trucks Band, Los Lobos, and Margo Price.

Signature Sounds has also set a release date to reissue its self-titled debut with lyrics and liner notes on a full-color inner sleeve, clear blue vinyl, and a never-before-heard song included in the download on June 24.

"8 stars… essential... beautifully crafted."
- Eric Danton, Paste Magazine, March 22, 2016

“The album may be the New Englanders’ best work to date, which is saying quite a lot… words and music resonate.”
- Jon Chattman, Huffington Post, April 13, 2016

“The latest and perhaps finest iteration of its gorgeous, slow-burning chamber folk [is] ‘Love Songs, a wide-ranging exploration of the phenomenon as manifested in romantic and other guises.”
- Stuart Munro, Boston Globe, March 9, 2016

“Enamouring.”
- Lee Zimmerman, Blurt, April 26, 2016

“Powerful… Winterpills choruses and arranged instrumentation together provides some of the most moving movements heard since Dennis Wilson's Pacific Ocean Blue.”
- Sjimon Gompers, Impose, February 26, 2016
