Traces of Glory

The year was 1992. And far from the sonic explosion of grunge, Los Angeles was beginning to experience the languid aftershocks of slowcore band IDAHO.

Performing to rave reviews, they appeared to be on the cusp of international stardom. Yet 30 years later, their legacy remains known only to a small, but dedicated, cult following.

Traces of Glory attempts to answer why one of the most brilliant bands from the 90s remains relatively obscure by examining eccentric frontman Jeff Martin as he contemplates his past, self-doubt and the fame he was never really after.

Premiering at film festivals in 2022.

Special thanks to all our kickstarter supporters!

When Jan and I embarked on this journey, there was no big budget financing. No crew. No assistants. No nothing. All we had were each other and our love for IDAHO. But luckily for us, we also discovered all of you along the way. Dedicated fans, indie film buffs and generous friends–all who were willing to pitch in and support this indie film passion project! So thank you all from the bottom of our hearts! You are all part of something very special and should all be very proud of what we all have achieved. Long live IDAHO!

xoxo Mark & Jan
