Wintermitts – Schoolyard

Canada…I hate how they flaunt their socialized medicine, bilingual schooling and dapper beavers emblazoned on their nickels. Now they have one more thing to hold over our heads, the band Wintermitts. Frankly, when I got their submission to the site I was a bit skeptic due to their use of the words “whimsical” and “accordion” in their bio, but after a quick listen to a couple of their tracks, I was soon proved wrong. Although the accordion is a bit overpowering at times, overall the songs I heard were really good with this track being the standout. They put out a new record earlier this year and you can download a few more tracks from that record as well as a previous record and an out-of-print EP on their website.
