Jupiter Bear

Jupiter Bear is the sonic playground of Boston-based artist Caleb Stark. He is a songwriter-producer with a vivid imagination and a deep love for psychedelic music. While Caleb is known for his work as a keyboard player around the East Coast, Jupiter Bear is his most personal artistic endeavor—where he has complete creative freedom to explore colorful, surreal, and emotionally rich soundscapes.

Blending influences from psychedelic pioneers like The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and The Doors with modern innovators such as Tame Impala, Gorillaz, LCD Soundsystem, and Björk, Jupiter Bear is an ever-evolving experiment in sound. He writes all the music and lyrics, sings, plays keyboards, programs synths and drums, and records guitar and bass, often collaborating with select musicians, including drummer Jacob Friedman.

Jupiter Bear thrives on duality—juxtaposing light and dark, simplicity and complexity, chaos and melody. Songs range from upbeat, groove-driven tracks to abstract, ambient explorations, with themes spanning love, anxiety, nostalgia, and surreal storytelling. He embraces unconventional song structures, sometimes crafting hypnotic single-phrase hooks or layering intricate harmonies over kaleidoscopic instrumentation.

As Jupiter Bear prepares for more releases, Caleb continues to push boundaries, creating immersive, otherworldly music that invites listeners into his dreamlike world.
