Also known for his work in the bands Twothirtyeight, Discover America, and Telekinesis, Chris Staples' solo material has traversed gritty indie rock, upbeat singer/songwriter pop, and warm, reflective folk-rock. The singer/songwriter/guitarist married introspective lyrics and moody melodies with a scrappy attack informed by punk and garage rock on his solo debut, 2004's Blackest Hair, Bluest Eyes, but ten years later, American Soft was a more subtle and carefully crafted exercise in indie folk. 2016's Golden Age took the more modest feel of American Soft and added a bit more polish and some pop inflections in the songwriting and production, an approach continued on such thoughtful, intimate albums as 2019's Holy Moly and 2023's Cloud Souvenirs.

Chris Staples has also released music as a member of Twothirtyeight and Discover America.
