Background

Heavily inspired by the story and the style of David Bowie’s alter ego Ziggy Stardust and his band The Spiders from Mars, Chip Chrome & the Mono-Tones is a concept album built on Rutherford’s struggles with binge-using social media and the band’s identity.

The first single, "Cherry Flavoured", was released on July 31, 2020. [4] An EP featuring four tracks from Chip Chrome & the Mono-Tones, Pretty Boy was released on September 9, 2020. [5] The album's second single, "Lost in Translation", followed on September 24, the day before the release of the album. [6]

The deluxe version, released on December 11, 2020, includes four more songs that serve as a prelude to the original material. A music video for "Stargazing" was released on December 14, 2020.
