Art Schop

Brooklyn's Art Schop is the solo project of contemporary rock musician Martin G. Walker. Exploring historical and modern ideas, Art Schop's music is skillfully crafted with earnest consonance and poetic lyricism that inspire people to see the world in new ways.

Born in the UK, Art Schop studied Physics at the University of Oxford, where he learned he would not be a physicist. Later, he moved to New York and reconnected with his musical roots. 

As a songwriter with an intent to make a difference, Art Schop strives to communicate beautiful and uncomfortable truths about human existence. Inspired by Schopenhauer’s World as Will and Representation, the artist developed an original theory that connects the universal laws governing the physical world with the foundation of morality and the meaning of life. This philosophy informs his life and art, and, particularly, pulses through his upcoming album Starguide out in Spring 2021.
