biographical info

Deep in the heart of Ontario, in Winter 2009, four souls combined to tell a story. A story of sudden blizzards, thin crust pizza - extra cheese, pepperoni, half pineapple, half red onion - whiskey, alienation, Tim Horton's coffee, chipmunk infestation, rum, love in the tundra, bewilderment, family and music.

J.Fevrier XIV (cuts), Kojo B. Chintoh (percussion), Kobi (vocals) and Scotty P (bassist/ guitarist), formed Canadian Winter. A number of chance meetings led to the group forming in Hamilton and they have since set about musically chronicling Kobi's arrival and subsequent stay in the country.

Working alongside producers such as Supa83, Slow Hand Motem, Michael 'Dex' Brown and Cheese Shop Paddy, the band have begun work on their first project 'Just Wait Till February'. This is the tale of a man who perservered when all about him was frozen and trekked the Great White North in search of his destiny. Drink a double double to that. Bundle up! CW.
