Chilly Gonzales

After 12 years of instrumental albums, ranging from the Solo Piano Trilogy whose first record is 20 years old this year, to collaborative albums with Boys Noize, Jarvis Cocker and Plastikman and a best-selling Christmas record and TV special A Very Chilly Christmas, Chilly Gonzales has a lot to get off his chest.

On the single F*ck Wagner, Gonzo takes on Cancel Culture and unapologetically goes straight for the jugular of that most contemporary question: Should we separate the artist and the work? Rapping about monstrous historical and contemporary figures from Wagner to Kanye, whose cultural contributions are nonetheless undeniable, Chilly Gonzales is raw, unfiltered, frontal, without losing his sense of melody.
