Winsome Kind

"Sweet Second" / "Song for a Winter's Night" (Gordon Lightfoot cover) (videos)

Christmastime is almost upon us, and Vancouver-based folk pop sweethearts Winsome Kind are celebrating with a single. They've rolled out two new tunes for the holidays: a seasonal original called "Sweet Second" and a cover of Gordon Lightfoot's "Song for a Winter's Night."

The husband-and-wife duo recorded "Sweet Second" in the CBC Saskatchewan building along with a drummer, upright bassist and pianist. It's a romantic, wintry tune about all-too-brief moments in front of the fire with a lover. The similarly tender "Song for a Winter's Night" comes from the same session, and it features the couple harmonizing while gazing into one another's eyes.

The songs were mixed by Tom Dobrzanski (of the Zolas) in Vancouver. Check out the premiere of the songs below along with in-studio videos captured during the recording session.

Tour dates:

12/01 North Vancouver, BC - Musos Holiday Show
12/03 Vancouver, BC - Vancouver Christmas Market (3:30-5:30 p.m.)
