A year ago, Greenville, S.C.-based The Winter Sounds was on the heels of releasing its sophomore LP and was four members strong with founder Patrick Keenan at the helm.

Since then, drummer Chris Weaver stepped in to flesh out the band’s sound after suffering the departure of drummer Ryan Durdin and keyboardist Meredith Huff. And the band has experienced an out-pouring of support as it continues to tour relentlessly in support of Church of the Haunted South and prepares to work on the album’s follow-up.
The Winter Sounds are no strangers to marketing themselves on the Web, and through Internet-based fundraising platform Kickstarter, the band found the means to fund the recording of its up-coming album.
Initially the band set a goal of $3,000 for the fundraiser, but the Kickstarter campaign raised more than $5,000, with one backer pledging more than $1,000. In addition to a tiered structure that promises fans swag in exchange for pledges, the band is also planning to create a collage of all of those who helped fund the record and use the image as the album cover.
