Chris and Tad (aka The Chris and Tad Show) was formed in 1998 by The Presidents of the United States of America's Chris Ballew and Young Fresh Fellows' Tad Hutchison.
They performed the theme song for KIRO-TV's The John Report with Bob called "Suk or Shine", which was later used as the theme for the FOX series Quintuplets. They also performed a promo song for the anime Yu-Gi-Oh!, which airs on Kids' WB. Their song "Sunshine Pig" was used in a TV advertisement called "Bobby in America" as a promotion for the reintroduction of the Mini Cooper.

Biography
Initially started as a "challenge band", where as each band member was allowed to make only one trip to the car for equipment...All you could carry in one trip, was what you had to play simultaneously....So as history goes, Chris made the trip with a guitar, an amp and a keyboard; Chris plays guitar and keyboard at the same time (sometimes playing the keyboard with a guitar pick or the headstock of the guitar). Tad got the job of hauling the drum kit...How can you make one trip with a full kit you ask?....Get yourself a childrens set with a 15" bass drum, 1 cymbal, a 7" snare and 2 tiny, tiny toms (a.k.a. a "childrens set").[1]
