Martyn Ware (born 19 May 1956) is an English musician, composer, arranger, record producer, and music programmer. As a founding member of both the Human League and Heaven 17, Ware co-wrote hit songs such as "Being Boiled" and "Temptation".
Ware has also worked as a record producer, notably helping to revitalise Tina Turner's career in 1983 with her cover of "Let's Stay Together", launching Terence Trent D'Arby's career by co-producing his solo debut, Introducing the Hardline According to... in 1987, and producing Erasure's I Say I Say I Say album in 1994.
