Winter has shared the final preview of her new album What Kind of Blue Are You?, due out October 14th on cult indie label Bar/None Records (Yo La Tengo, Ivy).

"sunday" is a fever dream meditation on social media toxicity, a topic she says is "always on my mind and generates a lot of fear and anxiety for me. It's a critique on social media's effect on mental health and contorted beauty standards for women."

The new single comes on the heels of her European & Australian tour supporting Hatchie. Winter will embark on a tour of the East Coast next month, including a homecoming show in Los Angeles at Zebulon on Oct 22nd.

Over the course of the pandemic, Samira decamped to Studio 22 in L.A. with producer Joo Joo Ashworth (Automatic, Dummy, SASAMI) where the pair spent the many months of harsh uncertainty sharpening her songs into a fine point. "I felt like I was making music in a dark cave with an old friend and no one else existed," Samira says of the process.

Within that place of separation from the outside world, she was able to venture into the core of Winter, imbuing every musical choice with a confident intentionality, and newfound vulnerability.

Whereas 2020's Endless Space (Between You and I) was steeped in fairytale surrealism and springlike grace, What Kind of Blue Are You? is crystalline and spartan, songs stripped to their inner blue core - Winter's smoldering shadow self. Watch the videos for previous singles "good" featuring SASAMI & "atonement" featuring Hatchie below.

Winter has just completed a tour of Australia & Europe with Hatchie, and will return to the States for a headline show in Los Angeles at Zebulon on Oct 22nd, followed by an East Coast tour with Peel Dream Magazine that includes a Nov 4th show in NYC at Baby's All Right. All dates below.
