Winterpills and Grant Lee Phillips live at Higher Ground Photos



We love, love, love The Winterpills (from Northampton, Massachusetts) here at Art Into Dust and have for years considered Philip Price to be one of the most heart stoppingly brilliant tunesmiths around. His songs are things of great depth and beauty and he has a honey drenched voice that sounds like falling in love for the first time. The last week or so a three piece line up (Philip Price: singing, acoustic guitar, piano, keyboards, Dennis Crommett: electric guitar, singing and Flora Reed: singing, keyboards) of The Winterpills have been touring the east coast of the states alongside the legendary Grant Lee Phillips, who I am sure you already know is another man blessed with a superb voice and considerable song writing skills of his own. Together they are a bit of a dream concert line up, and as and added bonus Grant, who is performing solo, has been playing along with The Winterpills and they in return have been backing him up on some of his set. On November 15th they played Higher Ground in South Burlington Vermont. By Odin's beard and tutu I wish I could have been there for such a magical evening. But I'm stuck here in London. Luckily Sareet was there with her camera and so here are some lovely photos to enjoy.
Also check out a fine set of videos of Grant with the Winterpills live in New York the week before here:
