  • In celebration of their 35 years as a touring and recording act, multi-platinum artist Winger has announced the release of their seventh studio album, the aptly titled “Seven” on May 5th. The 12-track album, produced by vocalist/bassist Kip Winger and recorded in Nashville, TN, will be distributed worldwide by Frontiers Music Srl. It is the band’s first new album since their 2014 release, “Better Days Comin’”. Kip talks with Guitar Interactive's Jonathan Graham in this exclusive interview.
    Winger is one of the only bands formed during the late ‘80s that still features all of their original members: Kip Winger, Reb Beach, Rod Morgenstein, and Paul Taylor. Guitarist John Roth was added in 1992. To support the new album, Winger will partake in extensive touring, beginning with a UK tour with Steel Panther in May followed by a U.S tour with the Tom Keifer Band in June. Additionally, the band will do a number of headline shows throughout the summer.

    I remember sitting doing my homework with my headphones on listening to wingers first album when it was released and ive been a lifelong fan since and will be until the day i die. Ive got to say this was a fantastic interview and I think Kip was humbled and obviously very appreciative of your knowledge of his band and solo career and I thank you for using that knowledge to allow Kip to open up and talk so elegantly about his craft. Definately worthy of a subscription, cant wait to hear more interviews

    Kip is the greatest. I love Winger, but to know that he is into and writes classical music as i love classical myself and Kip being nominated for a Grammy makes me admire him more so. I have seen a couple of Kip's interviews and you can tell he is highly intelligent and humble and he seems to be an approachable and kind guy. Kip has not lost his appeal and he is still a cutie and very handsome.

    I am so looking forward to seeing you guys play in Key West at RokIsland 2024. Setting aside for one minute the fact that I still have a major crush on Kip Winger, every single member of this band is so incredibly talented. Seven is a great album. Been a huge fan since the 80s. 🎸💟🙏

    Loved his work with Alice Cooper and then with Winger it is interesting. The first two albums were easily the most popular but Winger's best albums in my opinion are Pull (epic), Karma, and the new one Seven.

    I think it was one of STP's Weiland albums where they were starting to record separately (mainly the band v. Weiland recording vocals in his own studio) and I think that's where I started hearing about records being built and passed around digitally. It's kind of cool.
