Jefferson Starship is a US band formed in 1974 following the break up of Jefferson Airplane. The majority of the band members from Jefferson Airplane, including Paul Kantner, Grace Slick, David Freiberg, John Barbata, and Papa John Creach, joined forces with Craig Chaquico on lead guitar and Pete Sears on bass and keyboards to form Jefferson Starship. Their first album as a band was Dragonfly in 1974.

The name Jefferson Starship had previously been used for an all-star band backing Paul Kantner on his solo-album "Blows Against the Empire". However, it wasn't until 1974 that a real band bearing the name came into existence. Over the years, Jefferson Starship has undergone numerous lineup changes but has always retained its original member David Freiberg. Grace Slick left the band in 1978 due to reported alcoholic misbehavior but rejoined in 1981.

In 1984, band leader Paul Kantner departed from the group and a settlement prohibited the use of the Jefferson Starship name unless all original members were part of the lineup. As a result, the band changed its name to just Starship.
