Martha Davis shot to fame in the early 80's when her L.A.-based new wave band The Motels came into the MTV spotlight with their hit song Only the Lonely. In 1987 (the same year which Excellent Adventure was filmed) the band disbanded when Davis learned she had cancer. She had recorded a solo album, Policy, and fortunately she survived her bout with cancer.
Davis reformed The Motels into a new band in 1998 and released the album Anthologyland. The band continues to tour. Excellent Adventure was her only film performance.
Martha Davis and the Motels performed in 2008 on TV Land's show High School Reunion, performing two of their hit songs.

1998
The song stayed at number one for four weeks from September 5 to September 26, 1998, introducing Aerosmith to a new generation of fans. The song also stayed at #1 for several weeks in several other countries. The song rose steadily up the charts in the United Kingdom, peaking at number four in November 1998 and becoming Aerosmith's highest charting song in the UK to date.

Nelson was born in Indiana. She worked and recorded for several years from the late 1970s into the mid 1980s without achieving much success.
While "Move Closer" failed to find an audience in her home country, it reached number one on the UK Singles Chart in early May 1985, making her the first black woman to top that chart with a self-composed offering. The song remained on the chart for almost six months, and became one of the highest selling singles of the year. But her subsequent releases failed to make any impression, and she is eternally remembered as a one-hit wonder.
"Move Closer" returned to the UK chart in 1994, reaching the Top 40, after being featured in a television commercial for anti-perspirant. Nelson died from breast cancer in Los Angeles. She had been living there at the time of her death, and was also divorced. She was 47 years old
