JAX x STACY
Stacy x is the musical collaboration of Jax Solomon and Stacy Martin – an ongoing conversation about philosophy and embodiment, structure and feeling, distance and intimacy.
Why stacy x exists
Some collaborations begin with a shared sound. stacy x began with a shared inquiry.
What is love when it’s no longer confused with possession? What remains when idealization falls away?
Can two people meet without requiring one another to become smaller, safer, or more predictable?
The music exists inside that tension.

Jax Solomon
Jax brings the conceptual framework behind stacy x: language, relational philosophy, psychological inquiry, and architecture of the album’s central questions.
Jax explores the ideas in the book, OLNE on nonconditional love, nonjudgmental acceptance, and open communication – applied to common dynamics of autonomy, attachment, projection, and the distinction between intimacy and possession.
STACY MARTIN
Stacy brings the voice, perspective, collaboration. She doesn’t maintain a conventional public identity.
She appears through the music, images, writing, and her conversations with Jax. Her presence exists within the work.

Where intimacy lives without ownership.
JAX
At what point does knowing someone become assuming to know them?
STACY
Probably the moment surprise starts feeling like betrayal.
