| CHIN & TONIC - Peyton on TV again, or at least part of him is . . . |
| 21 February 2008 |
Peyton has teamed up with artist Cathy McDougal in the creation of a new TV series for Hed Kandi TV, called Chin & Tonic. The first episode has just aired, and can be found under the TV secion of www.hedkandi.com Read below for an introduction to the characters . . .
Chin and Tonic first met in Berlin during the war, while Tonic was playing piano for a cocktail lounge that catered to the city's less salubrious denizens. Chin, known in those days simply as Chi Chi, was secretly working with the resistance while using her skills as a cabaret performer to divert her public's attention from her own Jewish roots. After the war, Chin and Tonic moved to New York, where Tonic worked the coat check at Studio 54 while Chin sold drugs to pay the rent on their tiny East Village apartment and eventually raised enough money to record their first and last album together, famously maligned by one critic who is reported to have said "You might as well just ask someone to take a shit in your ear and save yourself the money!' Disheartened by the critic's response, and exhausted from years of heavy drinking, rampant sex, and Tonic's increasing addiction to crack, the inseparable friends decided to set their sites on London for a new canvas and a fresh start. After a short stint in rehab, the unstoppable duo went to work setting up a very successful prostitution ring under the guise of the old Kabaret club, catering mainly to politicians and gentlemen from high society who demanded the strictest secrecy in their nocturnal adventures. When the Profumo affair was eventually linked to Chin and Tonic's surreptitious operations, their worlds came tumbling down yet again and the perilous pair decided it was time to clean up their act and finally try their hands at something legitimate. It was their shared passion for disco, and their copious connections to the seething cesspool of nightclubs and DJ's that first gave them the idea to have a go at music journalism. Since then, Chin and Tonic have interviewed and partied with everyone on the scene from Donna Summer to Madonna, and there seems to be no stopping them. They have a style which is all their own, and a knack for getting onto any guest list and into every afterparty. Their commitment to traveling the world and bringing their fans the very latest in what's happening in music, both on and off the dance floor, is undoubtedly what has kept them at the top of their game now for close to thirty years.
