Winona Fighter – have shared their take on Violent Femme’s “Blister In The Sun”

Rising punk act Winona Fighter has today shared their take on Violent Femme’s “Blister In The Sun”, out now via Rise Records.

On the new cover, front woman and multi-instrumentalist Coco Kinnon shares: “The inspiration for doing a cover of ‘Blister In The Sun’ came when we were talking about doing an acoustic variant of our record. We love to honor those who have paved the way in everything we do, so it was only natural for us to pay homage to the folk-punk legends themselves, Violent Femmes. We are really stoked about this cover and getting a nod of approval from the band themselves made us all the more proud and excited.”

“Blister In The Sun” will be featured on the upcoming deluxe edition of the band’s critically acclaimed debut album My Apologies To The Chef. Set to be released digitally on September 5th with limited edition vinyl available for pre-order now, the expanded album will feature acoustic versions of every song from the original record, as well as their cover of Beastie Boys’ Sabotage” and the recently released track “(Don’t Get) CLOSE”.
