Chandler Leighton Finds Her Full-Circle Moment on Warped Tour.

“What the f*ck is up, Warped Tour?!” Chandler Leighton joins this week’s episode of idobi Warped Radio to talk with Fish about performing at her very first festival—and how surreal it is that it’s the Vans Warped Tour, the first fest she ever attended when she was in the eighth grade. From manifesting the full-circle moment to jumping into a Bring Me The Horizon mosh pit with Royal & the Serpent while her partner Sage Weeber was drumming, Chandler opens up about the career milestones and personal growth that brought her here.

She also dives into her slow-and-steady journey post-American Idol, the importance of mental health while touring, and why she actually prefers the challenge of winning over new crowds over the comfort of a headlining tour. With a new EP coming this summer led by her latest single, “Say Less,” Chandler reflects on her musical evolution, her supportive fanbase, and what she’d say to her 8th-grade self now that she’s taking the Warped stage.
