Rock n Roll Alibis is the debut solo studio album by American alternative rock musician Chad I Ginsburg. Recorded at Studio CIG in Los Angeles, California, it was released by Ginsburg's label Generation Overdone Records on July 7, 2015. All material was written by Ginsburg, who also performed all instruments and vocals, and produced, recorded, mixed and mastered the album.
Among reports of tensions within CKY, in June 2013 Ginsburg tweeted that he was "sorry, embarrassed and ashamed that we failed you", all but confirming the breakup of the band. He first revealed that he was working on a new project in October 2014, when he noted on Twitter that he had been in the studio. Later sharing a photo of a vocal recording session, Ginsburg confirmed in November that details of his debut solo album were forthcoming. The album was recorded, produced, mixed and mastered by Ginsburg.
Speaking about the production process after the album's release, Ginsburg explained that it took him "nearly a year to get all of the material together", but that once he had finished "there was enough material for a few albums". He also revealed that most songs began as bass lines written in his closet, upon which other parts such as guitars and vocals were later built.
On June 4, 2015, Ginsburg announced his debut solo album in the form of a trailer titled "The Interrogation", which sees two police detectives (portrayed by Mike Capes and Rob Valletta) interrogating Ginsburg about the album. The trailer, filmed by Neil Fernandez, revealed the album's release date, title, cover artwork, and featured a short clip of the album's closing track "Murder Is Sympathy". The second trailer for the album, "Mind of a Warrior", was released on June 19 and features a clip of an instrumental version of the track "Dead to You".
Rock n Roll Alibis was released on compact disc, 12" vinyl and digital download, and was made available in a number of bundles including extra items such as branded T-shirts, patches and guitar picks. The album was promoted on a North American concert tour beginning in August 2015.
