Sister Hazel Week: Day 1 "Your Winter"

06/09/2008
. (antiMusic) We start this week's artist spotlight with some random antiMusic trivia. Way back in November of 1998, Sister Hazel was the very first band to be the focus for a special feature when Debbie Seagle profiled the band. So when we heard that they were release a new album, it was a no brainer for us to do an artist week with them. Fortunately. frontman Ken Block readily agreed to tell us about his five favorite tracks from the new CD, "Before The Amplifiers, Live Acoustic," which hits stores next week. The CD features live acoustic versions of the band's hits, fan favorites, and live concert staples. Here is Ken with today's song:

"Your Winter": I wrote this song in Tuscaloosa, Alabama, sitting next to a filthy pool at a Days Inn. It was back when we were still in a van and trailer. It ended up on our "Fortress" CD but also on the soundtrack to the Movie "10 Things I Hate About You."

The Soundtrack went gold and the song introduced us to a whole new audience all around the world. The acoustic version we did of it is one of my favorite things we've ever done.
