The full four-track EP with remixes remixes by William Faith of The Bellwether Syndicate, Dan Milligan of The Joy Thieves, and MJ Phoenix of Amulet and Rob Early of 11Grams is out on December 21, 2023. (Bandcamp release 12/21/23) When Winter Comes, written during a visit to Alaska, is high-energy alternative rock and features powerful, soaring female vocals, a blistering sax solo, galloping bass, an iconic guitar solo, and perfectly interwoven guitar tones. The song is topped off with driving drums to send you home crying. “When Winter Comes” imagines the closing stages of an argument between a couple in which the singer starts by defiantly telling her man as he leaves that she won’t apologize or compromise. After reflection, she changes her mind and starts begging for forgiveness, promising to return home. -------------------------------- Lyrics: When the sun sets in the East And the dead rise from the ground I’ll still be waiting For your return I know you’ve got to go And I can’t stand it When you’re walking out the door I don’t know who you are anymore Did you sell your soul I’m not the one to blame I’m not sorry and I’m not wrong I’ll fix this hole inside my heart When winter comes When winter comes When winter comes along I won’t sell my soul Caught between two worlds I would have died for you Now I don’t have to hide You saw the tears in my eyes It’s all true But you never knew When winter comes When winter comes When winter comes When the sun rises in the West And empires fall I’ll still be waiting For you to call It’s scaring me to death But I can’t help it You left me crawling on that floor Like a thousand times before Who do you love more? Is it you or is it me? When winter comes Caught between two worlds When winter comes When winter comes I'm sorry I was wrong I'll sell my soul When winter comes along I’ll sell my soul I was wrong When winter comes along Caught between two worlds When winter comes along I was wrong I’ll sell my soul When winter comes along I'll sell my soul I was wrong I was wrong I’m sorry I'm coming home I'm coming home When winter comes -------------------------------- Personnel: Amulet: Stephanie Stryker – song-writing, lead vocals MJ Phoenix – song-writing, bass, rhythm guitar, lead guitar, keyboards, background vocals Bob Carr – rhythm guitar Additional Contributors: BJ Simmons – saxophone Jason Lloyd Kendall – saxophone Rob Early – engineering and production and mastering Dan Milligan – drums and production Devin Spear (Exhale Recording) – vocal recording and mixing
