“I never was a painter, but I could always draw my blood\u201d<\/q>\u00a0-Chris Connelly, 2017<\/cite><\/p>\n

Connelly’s sixteenth solo album, “Art & Gender”, will be released on Friday, October 6, 2017. The album was written, performed, and produced by himself.<\/p>\n

The new album will feature 10 new songs by the man of a thousand rock faces. Connelly just doesn’t like to sit still for very long.
