Winter Wheat is the second solo album by John K. Samson, released on October 21, 2016, via ANTI-.[4] It is his first album of new material since The Weakerthans went on hiatus in 2015.[5]

The album was produced by Samson's Weakerthans bandmate Jason Tait and Christine Fellows, and also features contributions from his Weakerthans bandmate Greg Smith.[4] In an interview with The A.V. Club, Samson described the album as feeling in some ways like a new Weakerthans album rather than a solo project.[4]

The album was a longlisted nominee for the 2017 Polaris Music Prize.[6]
