April 26, 2023 – “During the decade that I was making music, I hadn’t realized the toll it took on me, emotionally and physically,” he says in a press release. “I started questioning why I put myself through so much, and why I medicated myself so that I could deal with it. The addiction and Until the Ribbon breaks had become inextricably linked.”
Winfield stepped away from his career completely to see how things would change, but he understood that making music was something he loved and couldn’t let go of forever. It wasn’t until the pandemic, and the isolation that came with it, that he started to make music again on his own — this time, in a more “authentic” way.
“No one was asking me to make music. No one was expecting me to make music. It was literally the naivety of pressing a button on a keyboard or a drum machine, hearing a sound, and thinking ‘Wow. You can do that,’” he explains.
It was there that “Everything Else But Rain,” his new song featuring Lucius was born. For Winfield, the song contrasts the “defensive” and “angry place” he used to sing from in his past projects.
