chris clavin

Chris Clavin (born Christopher Johnston) is a musician and record label owner from Indiana with a strict DIY (do-it-yourself) punk ethic. He has been involved in numerous punk bands, and runs Plan-It-X Records, a label founded in 1994. When Clavin first started releasing solo songs, he did not want his typical moniker attached to them. Spoonboy (of The Max Levine Ensemble) gave him the name Captain Chaos. Though Clavin did not like the name, it stuck.

Lily & Madeleine

Nobody expected Lily & Madeleine’s first original song, “In the Middle,” to rack up a quarter of a million YouTube views. The Internet is obsessed with what’s new and what’s next, the fads and memes of viral culture, and so it would have to seem a little incongruous for social networks and content aggregators to embrace gimmick-free, black-and-white footage of an unplugged duo crooning a bittersweet and understated melody.
