Chris Zabriskie got his musical start in noise bands, but was forced into solo territory one night in 2001 when the rest of his band failed to show for a gig.
Zabriskie is known for releasing stark, confessional vocal albums (such as O Great Queen Electric, What Do You Have Waiting for Me?) alongside ambient, often piano-driven instrumental records, the most recent being 2009’s I Am a Man Who Will Fight for Your Honor.
