Winona Fighter have shared a new video for their single ‘Subaru’, paying homage to the movies Anchorman and Wayne’s World.
Fresh from their signing to Rise Records, the anthemic track follows the recent release of the Nashville trio’s singles ‘I’m In The Market To Please No One’, ‘I Think You Should Leave’, ‘Johnny’s Dead’, and ‘HAMMS IN A GLASS’.
A nostalgic slab of powerhouse punk-rock that breathes new life into the scene, the video showcases the band’s mischievous side as they play chaotic news anchors determined to tear the studio down.

Speaking about ‘Subaru’ and what it means to the band, frontwoman Coco Kinnon has shared:
“‘Subaru’ was truly never written to be as important as it is… but during our most recent tour, the amount of people who told us it’s their favourite Winona Fighter track was crazy. The fans really made me have a whole new love and appreciation for it so we’re extremely excited to re-release ‘Subaru’ into the world.
“My literal hand-me-down Subaru got me from New England to Nashville, Nashville to Los Angeles, Los Angeles back to Nashville, and through a multitude of tours when Dan (guitarist) and I had just started playing together. She deserved a song.”
And speaking on the iconic music video, Coco has shared:
“We took that dose of satire from the song and used it to fuel the ‘Subaru’ music video. It only took one meeting for Jake Johnston (creative director) and Dan Masso (producer) over at We’re All Gonna Die to really gauge our sense of humor. Dan, Austin, and I are never not having a little laugh so it was really awesome to let our natural selves shine on set.
“We took inspiration from our favorite comedy shows and movies growing up. From ‘Anchorman’ (a movie that came out when we were kids) to ‘I Think You Should Leave’ (a show that has us in a choke hold as adults) we were in a melting pot of Winona Fighter humor. Absolutely cracking up at any and every take. Is there a big meaning behind the video? I’d say it is whatever you interpret it to be about. I think this music video shows the most true side of the band which is that we love what we get to do so much and we are going to have fun with it whenever we can. Jake, Dan M., and the rest of the crew + cast gave this video so much life! Big thanks to them.”
