Unwed Sailor

UNWED SAILOR's odyssey began in Seattle, WA in 1998, shortly after Johnathon Ford left critically acclaimed bands 'Roadside Monument' and 'Pedro the Lion'. After recruiting Dave Bazan (Pedro the Lion), Casey Wescott (Fleet Foxes), and Melissa Palladino (Danielson Famile) to play on the 'Firecracker' EP, UNWED SAILOR was born. Two decades and seventeen releases later, Ford has continued to rely on the band as a device for personal exploration and emotive storytelling. Themes of escaping the mundane and the search for meaning are heavily present in UNWED SAILOR's DNA, alongside driving, stacked bass lines; wandering and evolving song structures; soaring crescendos and moody diminuendos; and, of course, a gripping sense of cinematic storytelling.
