ON BEAUTIFUL DAYS
The duo from Jerusalem and Lotharingia formed by Ruth Rosenthal and Xavier Klaine has been developing for around fifteen years a unique universe, to say the least, alternating synthetic punk sounds and dronic prayers of a society on the edge of the precipice. Nourished by metal and baroque music, multidisciplinary theater and African-American culture, they continue to trace a unique path by defending a radical discourse that is aware of its contradictions. They play across the world in clubs, galleries and churches, music that is minimal, dark, political and abrasive, between magic, chaos and melancholy.
Winter Family also create documentary theatre performances produced by major European theaters. Sometimes their daughter Saralei plays with them.

Album or track playing
'On Beautiful Days' is Winter Family's 4th album. It tells a lot of stories; that of the musicians themselves and their loved ones, those of their territories, of their life in Jerusalem, Paris or Lorraine; that of women, ‘witches’, conspiracy myths; that of capitalist and colonialist Europe; that of the blindness and violence of Israeli society and the indoctrination of its population; that of the occupation of Palestine; that of eternal lockdown and a laboratory rat; and maybe yours, too.
We hear layers of pump organs and harmoniums, an old piano, distortions and celestial white noise, sirens - the sound of marching boots - breathing during sleep - stun grenades at checkpoint 56 in Hebron recorded by Xavier, the flows of Saralei's flutes, beats played on an iPhone and Ruth's voice.
We dive into all these contemporary stories haunted by History, feeling of a leap into the void, a state of dissociation or a feeling of liberation.
