The Spaceship Martini is a Los Angeles-based indie rock band. Formed in 2006 by frontman Steven Martini during his ongoing first Sunday of the month residency at Canter's Deli, the Spaceship consists of members from other bands, including Ric Veda, invisibleland and Dropastone. Steven Martini plays the guitar, piano, and sings. Nishtan Motyka plays strings (violin, viper, cello), Terence Leclere sings and plays the bass, keyboards, and percussion. Arvind Singh (aka Brian Kessler) bangs on a cajone, sings background vocals, and is producer of their self-titled 2009 record.

Music

The music of the Spaceship Martini is an ever evolving mix of storytelling and sound, often centering on the lyrics that Martini writes. Most recently they scored the indie film Lymelife,[1][2][3] starring Alec Baldwin, Timothy Hutton, Emma Roberts, Rory and Kieran Culkin. Martini wrote the film with his brother Derick and based it on their childhood. The end title song was written while Martini was editing during the film shoot in New Jersey.
