Hey everybody.

Here’s a video for Only Passing by our old friend Gregory Pescia in New York. It was filmed in the Lower East Side this summer. Very fun to shoot! Even though it meant talking to a bunch of scary strangers from the big City. Yikes!!!

You can see Gregory P at the end of the video, he’s the last guy helping out! Love to him!

See you soon.

The double-D-cups have been sacrificed for a baritone guitar, but the question remains: You remember me?  Listen on SoundCloud

Every month as of now, a Chewy version of somebody else’s song, live (or almost) from Greg’s living room.

To kick things off, Pet Sematary, by The Ramones (1989), an all-time fave.
Enjoy and take care.

]]> http://chewy.ch/final/http:/chewy.ch/?p=123/feed 0 So here we are, dear reader… http://chewy.ch/final/http:/chewy.ch/?p=123 http://chewy.ch/final/http:/chewy.ch/?p=123#comments Mon, 06 Jun 2011 06:45:37 +0000 admin http://chewy.ch/final/?p=76 They’d been down for a long long time, but the lines are up again: we’re back!

I guess this second life for Chewy is as much of a surprise to us as it might be to you, but it seems it had to be. The songs just brought us back together. As two new members joined on, we first toyed with the idea of renaming the band, but thought again: heck, the Chewy spirit was alive, so be it!

We’ll be releasing our 3rd (or is it 1st?) album, Bravado!, on august 19th and doing shows -hopefully many- right after that. There’ll be a first gig at home in Lausanne in the meantime, just to get the rust off our hands…

Anyway, the main thing is: it’s good to be back. There’lll be more here soon. Looking forward very very much, it goes without saying.

Best to all, Chewy.
