Timeline

1963

Roswell Christopher Bottum (born July 1, 1963) is an American musician, best known as the keyboardist for the San Francisco alternative metal band Faith No More.

Bottum was born July 1, 1963, in Los Angeles, California, to Mary (née Hustead) and Roswell Bottum II, both natives of South Dakota.

Bottum has three sisters, Catherine, Elizabeth, and Stephanie.

1981

His father was a federal prosecutor for the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, who later went on to found the law firm Bottum and Feliton in 1981.

Bottum was raised Roman Catholic.

As a child, he studied classical piano.

Bottum attended Loyola High School, a Jesuit Catholic school in Los Angeles, from which he graduated in 1981.

He moved to San Francisco shortly after graduating to attend San Francisco State University in 1981 as a film major.

Joining his schoolfriends Billy Gould and Mike Bordin in Faith No More in 1981 (replacing Wade Worthington), Bottum remained in the band until its demise in 1998.

1985

In 1985, Bottum wrote the words to Faith No More's first internationally-recognized song, "We Care a Lot".

1992

However, after 1992's Angel Dust and its ensuing tour, Bottum's input into Faith No More was reduced significantly.

1994

In 1994 and 1995, Bottum formed Imperial Teen with Lynn Perko, another Bay Area music veteran.

1995

His keyboards, previously prominent in the band, were almost absent on King for a Day... Fool for a Lifetime (1995).

Bottum later explained that he suffered a nervous breakdown in this era and "all of that [time] is a real blur for me."

He was addicted to heroin and also experienced the death of his father and witnessed the aftermath of Kurt Cobain's suicide on Courtney Love (Cobain's wife and Bottum's close friend, and also an early singer for Faith No More).

1999

He is also guitarist and co-lead vocalist for the pop group Imperial Teen, best known for their 1999 single "Yoo Hoo" used in the movie Jawbreaker. In addition to popular musical career, Bottum also scored three Hollywood movies and composed an opera entitled Sasquatch: The Opera, which premiered in New York in April 2015.

The band's mainstream pop sound was a stark contrast to the aggressive metal of Faith No More, and is perhaps best known for their single "Yoo Hoo", used in the 1999 film Jawbreaker.

2005

Bottum composed the music for Craig Chester's gay romantic comedy film Adam & Steve (2005) and scored What Goes Up (2009).

In 2010, Bottum also scored Fred: The Movie for Nickelodeon.

2013

In 2013, Bottum moved to New York City and produced an opera, Sasquatch: The Opera.

He wrote the music and libretto for the piece about the elusive beast of the forest, describing it as a dark and gothic fairy tale about a backwoods family and the relationship between a caged woman and Sasquatch.

2015

The opera premiered in Brooklyn in 2015 and went to the Edinburgh Fringe Festival in the summer of 2016 for a month of shows.

The piece was staged with two stationary bicycles onstage.

They released their eponymous debut record on Muddguts Records in 2020.

In 2020, Bottum released the song "Daddy" under the name Man on Man, with partner Joey Holman.

The video was re-instated a month later on YouTube after receiving much criticism from the band and Rolling Stone magazine.

The second Man on Man single and video, "Baby, You're My Everything", was released by Bottum and Joey Holman in August 2020.

Man on Man released their self-titled debut album via Polyvinyl Record Co. on May 7, 2021.
