E327 Coco Kinnon of Winona Fighter on Warped Tour, Political Frustration, and Taking the Stairs to Success
This week, we're scratching The Itch for a class reunion! The Itch's Favorite Punk Band™ Winona Fighter is about to head out on the idobi Radio Summer School tour with Honey Revenge, South Arcade, Games We Play, and Chase Petra. And just in time to hit the road, they dropped a new single, "Bombs Away," their first new music since both versions of last year's Itch Album of the Year My Apologies to the Chef. Lead lady Coco Kinnon joins the three-timer's club to talk about the tour, the single, and how they proved to themselves what they're capable of with their wild, life-changing 2025.
Plus, we discuss the band's return to Warped Tour, their desire to speak to political frustration across ideologies, their new PG and not-so-PG t-shirts, and how a date night can lead to an acoustic reimagining of an entire album. As always with Winona F'n Fighter, this one's a good time. Enjoy.
