These Days

about

● Little Winter reveal cool, funky side to upcoming album. New single “These Days” out now!
● Little Winter present electric, yet breezy, single from their upcoming album.’

The dynamic quintet shines through the nordic clouds with colorful songwriting on their forthcoming album ‘WONDERLOST’ set to release fall 2022 via Celebration Records. Second single “These Days” will be released August 5.

With a groovy and synth-dominated sound, the new single “These Days” from Danish indie band Little Winter reveals that their soon-to-be-released album “Wonderlost” is more than a collection of love stories wrapped in 60’s inspired chamber pop. The tempo of the song shifts back and forth between a breezy, laid back attitude and a frantic bombardment of inputs.

Nikolai Ryan explains, “These Days revolves around expectations and demands from the outside world to constantly be someone. It feels like this pressure could come from all sides; from insatiable followers sporting ever diminishing attention spans on SoMe, to worried parents or demanding work environments pushing you to grow up and fit in. And when you allow yourself to just do what you feel like doing, it is as if you’re going against the current.”

Martin adds, “This song is certainly up there among the fast-paced and electric cuts from Wonderlost. We really wanted to encapsulate the weird cocktail of inputs and emotions you experience as you’re navigating an everyday life so deeply entangled with social media. We feel that we incorporated this in the DNA of the song, not only in the lyrics but also in all the different instruments and musical layers, as well as the various noise breaks and multilingual vocal cacophonies and what not. Some might find “These Days'' weird or even tough to chew and swallow, but then again, it is not all peace and harmony in your head as a young adult these days.”

As such, These Days contributes actively to painting the picture that is Wonderlost: to feel lost while trying to navigate the wealth of opportunities you are told that you have if you just find your purpose, stick to the plan and seize every moment. Drawing on the inherent lust in the term ‘wanderlust’ for finding true purpose, it explains how the search for inspiration and purpose often ends in confusion and despair; to be lost in the wonders of existence.

About Little Winter
The music of Little Winter is an homage to the sun-kissed beach vibes of the space age. Mix this with the DIY sounds of today’s indie scene, add dripping synthesizers and you’ll end with the colourful cocktail ‘WONDERLOST’ - the quintet’s forthcoming debut album. The collection of 12 songs tells a story of feeling lost in a grand, ephemeral world. It all revolves eternally around the inherent motivation behind ‘Little Winter’; a testament to the small winters we all endure to find our place in the world. Little Winter are long-time friends Nikolay Ryan, Alexander Mirz, Nikolaj Johansen Sodemann, Daniel Clifton and Martin Welling.

Debut album WONDERLOST will be out in the fall of 2022 on all streaming platforms and limited 12” gatefold vinyl LP.

lyrics

swimming up the river
where everybody goes
try to see the bigger picture
you gotta stay woke

these days it’s all about you
these days it’s all about
being someone...

driving in the sunlight
I’m feeling so good
but I’m driving on the wrong side of the road

these days it’s all about you
these days it’s all about
being someone

lately everybody knows
something that I clearly don’t
maybe I should try to let it go

these days it’s all about you
these days it’s all about
being someone

about

Little Winter image

Little Winter Aarhus, Denmark

Somewhere between melancholy and storming sentimentalism you find the band Little Winter. They write glowing pop songs about loneliness, love and sadness.

The music is rooted in the mulch of Western Jutland and the volcanic soil of New Zealand, which gives a natural play on contrasts and opposites, and a sound both atmospheric and danceable, introvert yet violent, and hopeful but always uncertain ... more
