TOOTH & NAIL RELEASES THE ROCKY VALENTINES/STARFLYER 59 SPLIT EP TODAY, DECEMBER 8
Today, December 8, Tooth & Nail Records is releasing a split EP between classic T&N band Starflyer 59 and new band The Rocky Valentines. The Rocky Valentines features frontman Charlie Martin, who is the son of Starflyer 59 singer Jason Martin. So it’s all in the family and a legacy release. Listen to the music, which is also available on vinyl, here.
On the EP, Starflyer 59 reimagine two of their songs with an orchestral arrangement with Frank Lenz. The Rocky Valentines contribute two of their own tracks, as well.
“Tooth & Nail is celebrating their 30th anniversary, which is cool,” says Jason. “We started with the label so long ago that we, of course, wanted to be involved. Things have now gone full-circle with my son being old enough to front his own band, so a split release seemed like a fun idea.”
Charlie concurs, stating, “I’ve been writing and recording music for a couple years now, mostly with my dad. But the idea of us both having songs on the same release just seemed so cool to me.”
The EP artwork was also designed by Ryan Clark, who is also a member of the extended Tooth & Nail/Solid State family, having been in both Training for Utopia and Demon Hunter.
