[edit] Cheese On Bread
Fishback also sings and writes songs in the anti-folk band Cheese On Bread, which released one album, "Maybe Maybe Maybe Baby" (Luv-a-Lot Records) in 2004, and toured North America in 2005. [1]
[edit] The Faggots
While his work with Cheese On Bread is characteristically child-like, Fishback also fronts a darker band, The Faggots, which boasts a harder rock sound. Unlike Cheese On Bread, which has garnered mostly positive publicity, The Faggots have prompted controversy in the press. [2] [3]
[edit] Solo Recordings
By himself, Fishback has released one full-length solo album, "Sweet Chastity" (Luv-a-Lot Records), in 2005, followed by an EP, "Strange Little Faggots," in 2006.
[edit] Miscellaneous
In September, 2006, Fishback was the subject of a piece on the PBS newsmagazine program In The Life.
