Look To The Moon has been described by the collaborators as the ultimate “pan-cultural summer driving song”! It is a song that never could have been written by the various parties on their own. Martha Johnson and Mark Gane of Chemical Dreams (and Martha and the Muffins) saw John Orpheus perform at the Confidence Emperors album launch for The International Sound System Party, Volume 1 compilation at The Drake Underground in June 2019. Says Johnson, “His dynamic stage presence made an impression on us and we thought he was an interesting guy that we could work with someday.” Adds Gane, ““Several months later we were pitching a track for a car commercial which called for a dance/club feel. Martha made some beats with a hip hop feel and I added some rhythm guitar, but we needed another element and John immediately came to mind.” The single and video are now available on all platforms.

You can pre-save or pre-order the new Chemical Dreams single today! Chemical Dreams is produced, co-written and performed by the team of Martha Johnson and Mark Gane of Martha and the Muffins. The project is as unpredictable as your dreams will be tonight. There is no set theme or style.  One minute it could be a sultry love song and the next you might be hearing a rhythm Grace Jones would be happy to hula-hoop to all night long.

Such a song is Look To The Moon, a collaboration with John Orpheus that they collectively describe as “a pan-cultural summer driving song”! It will be available on all platforms starting July 29th.

Martha And The Muffins Release New Single And Video

As the Coronavirus pandemic spread around the world, Martha Johnson and Mark Gane of Martha and the Muffins decided to challenge themselves by reimagining their song Come Out and Dance from the Mystery Walk album and ended up creating a whole new track called Stay Home and Dance. This coincided with Speaker of the United States House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi saying at an April 2nd press conference that “You can never dance too much, especially when you’re home.” With a new dance groove, the duo dedicates Stay Home and Dance to all the doctors, nurses, first responders, farmers, truckers, factory and postal workers and the countless others who are keeping it together for all of us.

The video for the song has an interesting origin. Back when Mark Gane was working in a wallpaper factory for the summer and wrote Echo Beach, he “liberated” some extra wallpaper and, inspired by the artist Christo, decided to cover his parents’ house in wallpaper while they were away on vacation. The never-before-seen footage of the event has been incorporated into the video along with footage of Mark and Martha Johnson’s daughter Eve and her cousins as toddlers dancing inside their house.
