The Prize Fighter Inferno, the beloved acoustic/electronica solo project of Coheed and Cambria’s Claudio Sanchez, is excited to share the new single “Virtual Pioneers” along with a reimagined version of the previously released song “The Going Price For Home”. Both are out today digitally, and are also available in 7” form via limited Webstore and Tour Only editions. The new music arrives in anticipation of the Before They Bury Me Tour kicking off on February 16th with two sold out nights at The Atlantis in Washington, DC. The tour marks the first time The Prize Fighter Inferno will perform live, nearly two decades after the release of the project’s first full length album, 2006’s My Brother’s Blood Machine. The Prize Fighter Inferno fans have let their excitement show, with a majority of the dates on the tour already sold out and after multiple venue upgrades as well. Limited tickets for select dates are still available while supplies last via www.theprizefighterinferno.com.

THE PRIZE FIGHTER INFERNO (CLAUDIO SANCHEZ) SHARES BRAND NEW SINGLE “VIRTUAL PIONEERS” AND “THE GOING PRICE FOR HOME (REIMAGINED)”

“‘Virtual Pioneers’ is a song I wrote and recorded on the road after reading Tomorrow, and Tomorrow, and Tomorrow by Gabrielle Zevin,” shares Sanchez. “Pioneers, a game created to heal and reconnect two friends, was a touching concept and a driving source of the song’s inspiration.”
Over the years, Sanchez has steadily released songs under The Prize Fighter Inferno banner, including singles, EPs, and the 2021 full-length The City Introvert. A full list of upcoming tour dates for The Prize Fighter Inferno can be found below.
“I’ve spent the last few months reacquainting myself with the early PFI material and I’m sparked with memories that glued triumphs to the tragedies, the spaces in-between, the highlight reel that many don’t get to see,” shared Sanchez at the time of the tour’s announcement. “These performances could inspire something, maybe even birth a whole new avenue of expression for me, and with that, I welcome the experience and hope the audience will too.”
The Before They Bury Me Tour is only the tip of the iceberg for Sanchez’s busy year, as the prolific writer and musician is also set to hit the road with Coheed and Cambria for a run of dates with Incubus in August.”
