Next show: New York City, Thu 17 Dec
Christopher John Campion is a singer-songwriter/racontuer-author best known for his rollicking off-Broadway music-monologue-piece, Escape From Bellevue and the acclaimed memoir that followed on Penguin Books. He is also lead singer of the New York City alt-pop combo Knockout Drops. In 2016 he released his first full length solo album, Watch The Gap, and since then has been continually out playing, touring and opening shows for M.Ward, Rhett Miller, and Violent Femmes. In 2017 and '18 he released the solo EP, Split Milk and another EP, Otto Otto backed up by the raucously Faces-esque rock-n-roll band, Mad Staggers. In the spring of 2020, after enduring harrowing bouts with the Coronavirus, Campion and his fiancé started producing the Facebook live stream "CJC: Live from the Living Room" out of their apartment every Friday afternoon at 6pm, which is still going strong. On the show Campion sings songs(both his own and some choice covers...from Johnny Cash to The Cure and everything in between), gets unhinged with a story or two, and riffs interactively with the audience. It's "good craic" as the Irish say. Post pandemic 2021 finds CJC back with the brand new solo EP, Face Off and out playing tri-state area shows around it, including a release-show performance at The Bitter End on July 8th with Mad Staggers. Recently his songs have been featured in the movie Already Gone (starring Seann William Scott) and on the CBS shows Instinct and NCIS:Los Angeles.
