Chris Vrenna
Chris Vrenna (born February 23, 1967) is the former drummer of Nine Inch Nails (1989-1997) and now brainchild of the band Tweaker. The band has two full-length albums entitled The Attraction to All Things Uncertain and 2 A.M. Wakeup Call, as well as a new album due out in 2007. Vrenna's inspiration is derived mainly from surreal paintings and dreams.
The inspiration for 2 A.M. Wakeup Call came from his wife. She had trouble sleeping and would wake up each night at exactly 2 A.M. This gave Vrenna the idea for the album. He compiled several artists together for the album and told them that it would be based off of dreams and feelings that occur at night time. Robert Smith contributed to this album.
Vrenna has toured, both as Tweaker and as a touring musician for various bands. In 2006 he was a touring drummer for Gnarls Barkley, even wearing the original Chewbacca costume for the group's Star Wars-themed performance at the 2006 MTV Movie Awards. Reportedly, he is touring with Marilyn Manson as a keyboardist for the band's 2007 tour.
