Winterpills House Concert

Roots Hoot House Concerts is pleased as can be to announce to the return of Winterpills for a show in our space on Saturday, December 6. Begun in the Pioneer Valley region of Central Massachusetts in 2003, the 5-piece band based out of Northampton is defined by the calling cards of the male-female harmonies of Philip Price and Flora Reed to go with the band's melancholic folk pop sound. It's a lot of sound for our room, but can't think of a better way to spend an early December Saturday night. The band has just released a dreamy new, all-covers recording called "Echolalia". From the web site:
"While their full band was busy raising kids and committed to various day jobs, Flora Reed and Philip Price of Winterpills decided it would be fun to quickly record some of their favorite cover songs while the tape rolled. But what began as a small casual project morphed into an orchestrated, introspective transformation of a few well-known songs and quite a lot of under-appreciated gems: songs by Sharon Van Etten, Buddy Holly, Lisa Germano, The Go-Betweens, XTC, Beck, the Beatles, and more get the treatment of filtering through the alchemy of Flora and Philip's vocal & instrumental chemistry experiment. Almost archival in nature, Echolalia does not play like the standard covers album packed with well-known hits. It's a treasure trove filled with beloved songs picked because Price and Reed felt that they were meant to transform them."

This will be a BYOB/potluck show which means terrific food to go with an evening of great music. Check out Winterpills on the web at http://www.winterpills.com/
