Biography
1) Chin Chin, a Swiss female punk rock band from Zurich, active from mid to late 80s who released music on The Pastels’ 53rd and 3rd label.
2) a downtempo ‘laptop-folk-tronic’ trio from the UK whose 2005 Shallow Dive album was released on Deep-Water Recordings.
3) A current jazz/funk hybrid from Williamsburg Brooklyn NYC who’ve released music on the French label Dialect Recordings, and alternative rap label Definitive Jux in the United States.
———————————————————————————————————-
1) They released the 8-song EP “Stop! Your Crying” on 53rd and 3rd Records in 1986 and three Swiss releases on Farmer Records, “We Don’t Wanna Be Prisoners” (1984), “Sound Of The Westway” (1985) and “Stop! Your Crying” in 1986.
Stephen Pastel on their signing to 53rd and 3rd:
“where did (the fabulous) chin-chin come from?
they were a swiss band and they played with the shop assistants when the shop assistants were touring europe. they were just massive shop assistants fans and they really just wanted to be on the same label as the shop assistants, and they just sent over their tape.”
—————————————————————————————————————————
2) Chin Chin is the foltronic trio of Frankie Binns, Theresa Connelly (TC) and Chris Cousin who each share a love for acoustic instruments, found sounds and electronic nuances. Following the release of their debut album ‘Shallow Dive’ in 2005, the group have attracted a wealth of new listeners the world over with their distinctive, laid back sound.

It's really unfortunate that Chin Chin of the Swiss-punk persuasion has to share a page with these other mouthbreathers. Last.fm.....work on the disambiguation issue, plz!

It's wierd that everyone do have to notice when it is a "female band"! From now, i'm always going to say "all-men band" when to describe a band full of shit. Chin chin is by the way very very very good. JUMMY!
