In Winter

After Working For 3 Years Together As Pirun Kuva Doug Bjornholm Keys And Jason Knotek Guitar Joined The Cleveland Based Band Shenoah For A Short Time In 2003. While Auditioning Singer Kara Hill For A Spot In Shenoah Both Doug And Jason Were Captivated By Her Voice. It Was Decided That The Three Shared A Creative Vision Of The Music They Could Create Together. Without Hesitation The Group Began Extensive Studio Work Pushing The Limits Of Their Talents And Opening Themselves To Create A Musical Style Without The Limitations Of Any Genre-Based Music. After 2 Years Of Studies Drummer/percussionist Jon Vinson Returned From MI In California To Complete The Group. Their Debut Album Murmur Was Released On July 9th 2005. On February 12 2006 The Band Officially Announced It's Split With Founding Member Doug Bjornholm Who Decided Amicably To Move On To Other Projects. With A Large Opening To Fill In Winter Asked Their Good Friend Angel Who Was Well Known For His Time As Drummer For The Genitorturers To Temporarily Fill In On Keys. But What Was Intended To Be A Temporary Solution Ended Up Proving Angel To Be Just The Person In Winter Needed. After Just A Few Performances It Was Decided The Band's Chemistry Was The Strongest It Had Ever Been And The Band Decided To Keep Angel As A Permanent Member. In Winter Parted Ways Late 2006 Due To Creative Differences. Their Album Is Still Available Through Kara Hill's New Bands' Website.
