Jason Martin is the sole songwriter behind Starflyer 59, a project that combines his love for British shoegaze, Beatlesque pop, dreamy space rock, and the songcraft of assorted indie bands like the Smiths and My Bloody Valentine. The band emerged in 1993 with a sound that hewed closely to the sonic architecture of shoegaze. Beginning with 1998's The Fashion Focus, Martin began to dial back on the wall of guitars and started embracing keyboards and more traditional pop craftsmanship. He also began working with other musicians, including Frank Lenz, Wayne Everett, and Richard Swift, and maintained a prolific release schedule, with highlights arriving via 2001's Leave Here a Stranger, 2010's Changing of the Guard, and 2019's Young in My Head, the latter of which cracked the Top 25 of the Christian Albums chart. In 2021, he released his 16th full-length, Vanity.
