March 7, 2024 - Nashville, TN - The punk rock band Winona Fighter is excited to announce that they have signed with Rise Records.
"I'M IN THE MARKET TO PLEASE NO ONE" is an empowering punk rock anthem about standing up for oneself and no longer tolerating toxic relationships. The song premiered on the BBC Radio One Rock Show.
Frontwoman Chloe Kinnon explains:
"You don’t have to be a genius to understand that 'I'M IN THE MARKET TO PLEASE NO ONE' comes from a place of anger. But it means so much more than that. I recently found an unsent letter to a boy I met in college, and I wished I had never met him. In that letter, I felt so powerless. I felt disgusting, but I also realized that I had the opportunity to put my true feelings on paper after years of growth. That’s how I’M IN THE MARKET... was born."
She continues: "Did you know that one in three young, excited, potential-filled women going to college is abused in some form? I wrote this song for them. I wrote the track for my friends, my family, and even for myself. It doesn’t come from a feeling of anger, but from a feeling of strength. I want to start a conversation. I want people to be able to scream this song, to mosh to this song, to feel like they can take control of their story."
Regarding the music video, Kinnon adds:
"The filming of 'I'M IN THE MARKET TO PLEASE NO ONE' couldn’t have gone better. Jake Johnston (Creative Director) and Dan Masso (Producer) from We’re All Gonna Die not only perfectly executed our vision but also made the filming incredibly fun. The idea behind the 'IITMTPNO' music video was to reflect the anger and chaos of the song itself. Although the song deals with a pretty serious topic, we wanted to give it an energetic backbone to make it easier to talk openly about the subject. We thought, why not do the same with the music video? Instead of creating something serious and solemn, we chose the theme of feeling crazy in narcissistic situations. We channeled the anger and frustration that comes with it, but also the relief you feel when you finally open up to your surroundings. There wasn’t a moment during filming when we weren’t scarred by a fake therapist and rummaging around in a dirty, old bedroom, and we loved it. We can’t wait for everyone to experience the rollercoaster of emotions with us when they see the film."
Following the release, the band will perform a series of showcase shows at this year’s SXSW Music Festival in Austin, TX. They will also embark on a full US tour throughout April as support for Bayside, Finch, and Armor For Sleep, and will perform at several festivals.
The punk band from Nashville, led by the electrifying Chloe Kinnon, is breathing new life into the revitalized punk scene and aims to create punk music that is accessible and acceptable to all music lovers who want to listen.
Kinnon’s introduction to the Boston punk rock scene at a young age was the catalytic influence for her current sound and stage presence. Moving to Nashville gave her the mission to convey the power of thrash melodies to all music lovers.
After recruiting lead guitarist Dan Fuson, they set out to honor the scene left behind by Coco. Eventually, they welcomed Austin Luther (Bass/Producer) into the family.
The band is known for their energetic live performances. Their shows are a place where all bullshit and egos are left at the door - everyone is welcome, equal, and must get on their feet. Recently, they opened for bands like Incubus, Motion City Soundtrack, Badflower, and Something Corporate, and played several sets at Bonnaroo 2023.
