Chris’s music on TV

Did you watch NBC’s Kingpin on Sunday, February 9? If not, you missed Chris’s tune, “No One is Scared” (found on Private Education). Catch a rerun on Valentine’s Day on the Bravo channel!

Whether or not you’ve purchased INITIALS C.C., Chris’s first double-CD retrospective, you’re sure to enjoy reading the director’s comments which are now available. (But seriously, if you haven’t purchased INITIALS C.C. yet, go do it now!)

Finally, Pigface goes on tour in March and Chris will be with them! Check out the tour dates page for information and updates.
