Today, Kingston, NY via Charleston, South Carolina folk singer-songwriter Ginger Winn shares her intimate, cathartic \u201cNot You\u201d\u2013a touching tribute to the artist\u2019s late father, out everywhere now. Winn\u2019s sophomore album Freeze Frame is due out June 13. On May 1, the artist and musician\/producer A.J. Yorio (Michael Marcagi) will play live at Colony in Woodstock, NY with tickets on sale now here.<\/p>\n
Plus, Winn shares a mental health-focused surprise EP Reflections out today. Written in the wake of losing her father, the three-track EP includes a heartfelt titled \u201cTo Dad\u201d where the artist begins to process her immense grief. Included on the project is a cover of The Lumineers\u2019 \u201cGloria\u201d that reimagines the original with Winn\u2019s own personal touches.<\/p>\n
Winn says, \u201cNot You,\u201d out today, \u201cwrestles with a word difficult to say out loud \u2013 suicide. Especially about a loved one. I lost my own father to suicide this past Thanksgiving. We actually made the demo for this song over a year ago, before my own experiences, but I recorded it with A.J. Yorio in January and used it as a catharsis. I hope it helps others who have experienced the loss and resulting guilt, confusion, and pain associated with it.\u201d<\/p>\n
The forthcoming LP, Freeze Frame, produced and engineered by A.J. Yorio, sees Winn tackle the complexities of heavy topics like suicide, grief and anxiety. Recorded during a record snow storm in Cincinnati at Yorio\u2019s home studio after globally touring with Michael Marcagi, the album came together naturally and the pair found their stride. Yorio reflects, \u201cI had barely learned how to keep time on the drum kit, let alone learn how to record them correctly, when Matt Baione (Ginger\u2019s co-writer) reached out and asked if I would want to get in the studio first-thing 2025 and make a record. My second son had just been born eight weeks earlier. When Ginger came in January we got snowed in for more than a week with record-breaking-flakes here in Cincinnati. Sharing my home and family with Ginger amidst the epic snowstorm felt like living in a really intriguing Netflix series. It was an utter blast.\u201d<\/p>\n
Without wanting to give away too much, Winn is looking forward to sharing her most personal project yet that marks a turning point in her life. Winn reveals, \u201cI had never lost someone that close before. It shifted everything. We recorded in January, while the emotions were still raw. \u2018Freeze Frame\u2019 is a reflection of that\u2014of change, of loss, of holding on to fleeting moments before they disappear.\u201d<\/p>\n
On the three incredibly personal tracks out today on the surprise project, Winn shares \u201c\u2018Reflections\u2019 is an EP about loss. Three songs, three different stories\u2014each one a glimpse into the weight of grief, the echoes it leaves behind. If there\u2019s one thing I\u2019ve learned from experiencing deep loss, it\u2019s that pain can shape something beautiful. Even in the darkest moments, there\u2019s something worth holding onto.\u201d<\/p>\n
Born and raised in South Carolina, Ginger Winn has been singing and songwriting since age nine. In 2022, Winn began producing music for others online, and in 2024, shared her wistful debut album, STOP-MOTION, produced by David Baron (The Lumineers, Noah Kahan, Shawn Mendes). Atwood Magazine wrote the LP is \u201csweet, stirring, and sun-kissed..an intimate and honest snapshot of the full spectrum of emotion and experience, introducing a budding artist with a heart of gold and the voice to match.\u201d Now, with new hardships and life experiences that color her forthcoming second project, Winn begins to artistically explore and present new parts of herself as she moves through the darkness and weight of grief like never before. The album\u2019s first single, \u201cFreezing\u201d is out now.<\/p>\n
