About Unwed Sailor
The instrumental post rock ambience of Unwed Sailor has been guided by the vision of Johnathon Ford (Pedro the Lion/Roadside Monument)
Since starting the band in Seattle in 1998, Ford has combined elements of post rock, new age, new wave, ambient, shoegaze & film music to create the unique sound and vision of Unwed Sailor.
A late-night drive to nowhere, built on journeying melodies and throttling atmosphere. Unwed Sailor’s shoegazing, new wave escapism is very deeply felt right now” - NPR
Unwed Sailor’s beloved album “Mute the Charm” is post-rock with an unwavering pulse, tightly wound connective tissue, and self-proclaimed shades of everything from The Stone Roses to Seam. - Bandcamp (Album of the Day)
For more than two decades, Ford has led the post-rock band Unwed Sailor. In that time, Ford has steered the band through a searching string of albums, incorporating the influence of ambient music, shoegaze, new age, math rock, and drone into its body of work, which constitutes one of the greatest under-recognized discographies in all of indie rock. - Aquarium Drunkard
Unwed Sailor rule the instrumental rock landscape. - Pop Matters
