The Hidden Winter began with many heavy emotive storms. There were moments of highs, tremendous lows, minutes that passed like hours, and hours that faded like seconds… Upon several months passing, and with the storm finally starting to settle, five people remained, connected to each other through music, passion, life, and creating sound.
