The Winter of Mixed Drinks is the third studio album by Scottish indie rock band Frightened Rabbit.Vocalist and guitarist Scott Hutchison notes that the album is:“ about an escape and maybe even a slight breakdown. I have to say, it's semi-fictional. There's a protagonist who is possibly male but it doesn't really describe my life because if I did that it wouldn't make for an interesting album this time around as I’ve been quite solid and content, thankfully. ” The album will be preceded by the singles, Swim Until You Can't See Land and Nothing Like You, released during November 2009 and February 2010 respectively.
