Ashnikko — Inside the Smooches Era
from Spout Podcast Hosted by Spout Podcast & Studio71
Ashnikko joins Nick Major for a wildly fun and unexpectedly heartfelt deep dive into Smooches, her bold new era filled with bunny-coded visuals, body-horror buck teeth, alter-egos, and the most personal music of her career. In this episode, Ashnikko opens up about: • The making of Smooches, her most autobiographical album yet • How Sunday Smooch became the mischievous lead character of the Smooch World universe • Learning to create from joy instead of pressure (and why TikTok virality can be a trap) • The surprising stories behind “It Girl,” “Lip Smacker,” “Skin Cleared,” and her favorite lyrics • Her evolution from teenage poet to global touring artist • How heartbreak, intuition, and healing shaped the new music • The ambitious vision for her upcoming Smooch World Tour—think musical theater meets cabaret meets fever-dream circus • Her love of side quests: fossil hunting, sword-making, crafts with her mom, pottery, and building household items from scratch • Life on the road with her dog Wednesday (aka Winnie Penny Chickadee Chicken Chach Chicken Girl) It’s Ashnikko like you’ve never heard her—witty, introspective, creatively unhinged, and fully in command of her artistic universe. If you’re a fan of bold pop, world-building artists, or creative reinvention, this episode is a must-listen.
