Som Vinter is a Swedish singer-songwriter. He launched his solo project after his former band, Sam Kills Two, split up after the release of their second studio album, Pretty Ugly.
Following the band's break up in 2011 Vinter made attempts to record new material but ended up very unhappy with the results and decided to take a break from music. He then spent nearly two years dividing his time between near isolation in his home outside of London and travelling to both Sweden and Thailand for creative and spiritual inspiration.
After processing a painful band break up and rediscovering a sense of urgency to his writing and the importance to create music, Vinter returned to the studio in early 2013 to write and develop the songs for his forthcoming album. The album promises a deeply introspective and close up view of Som Vinter's inner workings. It has a planned release of mid 2014.
