LISTEN: Nichole Wagner, “Winner Take All”

Jul 12, 2018

Artist: Nichole Wagner
Hometown: Austin, Texas
Song: “Winner Take All”
Album: And The Sky Caught Fire
Release Date: July 13, 2018

In Their Words: “Not only is this the track from which the album title was born, it’s also become my favorite on the record. It didn’t start out that way when I first wrote it, but songs can be funny and as they jell, you begin to see the beauty in cutting verses and even leaving off a final chorus to sharpen the point. I love how it describes this very short moment–the amount of time it takes someone to roll and light a cigarette–but it shows how even just a few seconds can be pivotal.”
