Winter Gloves 'about a girl' Out Now!
Posted Thu Sep 11, 17:10 by James Trauzzi
After over 17,000 downloads of their song 'Let Me Drive' as iTunes' Single of the Week – the much anticipated full length album from Winter Gloves, 'about a girl', hits stores today!
Winter Gloves is Montreal's latest outfit catching the ears of music lovers and critics alike. The band's 'about a girl' LP is ten pop songs driven by dancing keyboards and drums, all wrapped up in a constant buzz of bass and gritty synths.
Before 'about a girl' was released, Winter Gloves was throwing out copies of their demo EP to lucky fans at their shows in between songs. Now that the full length is out, they still wanted to give something special to their fans, so to everyone outside of Canada who hasn't had a chance to check them out just yet here is the early version of their song Let Me Drive.
