Details:
I Can''t Believe You Live Like That is the debut solo release from Pretty Mighty Mighty frontman and multi-instrumentalist Jon Chinn.
Based in Columbus, Ohio, Jon has spent the last thirteen years with Midwest indie pop band Pretty Mighty Mighty, and for the past several years co-owned and operated Workbook Studio (RJD2, New Bomb Turks, The Sun), placing Jon in the unique position to document his talents as a solo songwriter. In the Spring of 2003, Jon held a weekly residency at Columbus hot spot Andyman''s Treehouse, debuting new material and work-in-progress compositions. WWCD101 released a compilation containing tracks recorded live in-studio, including Jon alongside notables such as Matthew Sweet, Jimmy Eat World, Flaming Lips, Pete Yorn and Tenacious D.
The bulk of I Can''t Believe You Live Like That was laid to tape late at night, early in the morning, or whenever a free moment of time at Workbook would allow, with the majority completed during the Summer and Fall of 2003. Guest musicians from a number of Columbus-area bands (Miranda Sound, Tiara, Templeton) are strewn throughout, adding to the melodic textures found on tracks like "Lying Through Your Teeth" and "Kings Horses."
Jon will be touring in support of I Can''t Believe You Live Like That throughout the year, as well as working on a new studio record with Pretty Mighty Mighty.
