Cameron Winter (born (2002-03-04)March 4, 2002) is an American musician who fronts the rock band Geese. He released his debut solo album, Heavy Metal, in 2024.

Winter grew up in Park Slope, Brooklyn, attending the Brooklyn Friends School. His mother, Molly Roden Winter is a writer, and his father Stewart Winter is a composer and co-owner of a sync library; both are Jewish.

In his adolescence, he played youth football but had to give it up due to concussions, after which he turned to music. In high school, he formed a band, Geese, with friends from school.

After high school, he applied to Boston University with the intention of pursuing a degree in communications but ultimately chose to forgo college and pursue music as a career, along with his Geese bandmates, after signing with Partisan Records in 2020.

Formed in 2016 with Winter as their vocalist, keyboardist, and main songwriter, Geese has released four studio albums: A Beautiful Memory (2018), Projector (2021), 3D Country (2023), and Getting Killed (2025).

Winter made his solo debut in October of 2024 with two songs, "Vines" and "Take It With You", in the form of an EP titled Singles. On December 6, 2024, he released his debut solo album, Heavy Metal, to widespread critical acclaim. It was named one of the best debut albums of 2024 by Paste and an early entry for one of the best albums of 2025 by several publications, given its late 2024 release*.* Pitchfork would go on to name Heavy Metal the third best album of 2025 and its third song "Love Takes Miles" the best song of 2025. Lizzy Goodman summarized in The New York Times that Heavy Metal was "received as a tour de force ... But it has also turned Mr. Winter into the kind of artist that has fans analyzing every detail of his impressionistic lyrics and telling him his work has kept them from suicide. In other words, [it] has received the kind of response that a record earns when the artist who made it is on their way to a certain kind of highly personal stardom."

On his first solo tour, Winter became one of the youngest artists ever to headline a concert at Carnegie Hall. The concert was filmed by Paul Thomas Anderson. NME's Andrew Trendell reviewed the London leg of the tour, awarding Winter's Roundhouse show a full five stars and saying that he "has the power, talent and magnetism of a future great – a star to go the distance with just that voice, a piano and a whole world quite literally at his fingertips."

Winter cites Leonard Cohen and Bob Dylan as the primary influences on his solo material. Critics have drawn further comparisons between Winter and the likes of Tom Waits, Stephen Malkmus, Jeff Mangum, Bill Callahan and Lou Reed.

Winter's voice has been praised for its range and versatility. Describing Winter's vocals on Projector, Jon Dolan of Rolling Stone said that Winter "can hoist his voice into a Thom Yorke-an falsetto, put on a posh pout à la Julian Casablancas or Ian McCulloch of Echo and the Bunnymen, or lapse into a stentorian yawp that brings to mind Mark E. Smith of The Fall or Arctic Monkeys’ Alex Turner." Ian Blau of Rolling Stone said that Winter "shines throughout [3D Country]", where he "contorts his voice to fit any set of lyrics or musical style." When it comes to Winter's vocals on Heavy Metal, Walden Green of Pitchfork characterizes his voice as a "woozy baritone", a "versatile and tender instrument ... immediately remarkable for its sheer range and depth of tone." Fellow musician Nick Cave lauded his voice on Heavy Metal as "glorious" and "emotive".

Described as "a songwriter par excellence" by Walden Green of Pitchfork, Winter's lyrics have been noted for both their cathartic and surreal qualities. Nick Cave described his lyrics on Heavy Metal as "brilliant" and "blistering".
