About Walter Martin
Hometown
Washington, D.C.
Genre
Singer/Songwriter
A member of the cult favorite '90s act Jonathan Fire*Eater and the acclaimed 2000s indie band the Walkmen, as a solo artist Walter Martin writes charming, life-affirming songs that bridge the gap between music for children and adults. On "juvenile" albums like 2014's We're All Young Together and 2017's My Kinda Music -- both of which won Parents' Choice awards -- he celebrates the joys and wonders of life in ways that resonate with the young and the young-at-heart. His albums for adults, which include 2020's The World at Night and 2022's The Bear, tackle subjects spanning art history and mortality with a light-handed wit that places him in the tradition of master storytellers like Harry Nilsson and Randy Newman.
