Winter Flowers


Folk music has the ability to either be really great and moving or ridiculously self indulgent. Thankfully the songs crafted by San Fransisco Trio Winter Flowers is of the former variety. They craft beautiful melodies that are bittesweet and mostly lighthearted but with this feelinng of darkness just at the edges. Male and femal vocal lead both echo great artists, 'Hey Ho' has the wearied sound of a great lost Neil Young track and 'Too Young to Marry' could fit right in with any of the Pentangle catalog. Another great SF folk group. Unfortunatly no album yet but it looks like one is in the works over at AttackNine records home to RSTB faves Women & Children.

According to their myspace page, there are 5 members in the band - not quite sure why there are "obviously four people" in the band, but anyone who knows the truth, let us know. We apologize for the incorrect info.
