Unwed Sailor coming back to Nite Owl
Unwed Sailor, my personal favorite instrumental band of all time, is coming back to the Nite Owl this Wednesday, April 9th.
Unwed Sailor is the Seattle-born brainchild of songwriter and former Roadside Monument frontman Johnathon Ford. Ford has been a pioneer for progressive-instrumental rock since 1998.
The band is coming through Dayton promoting their brand new LP entitled Little Wars.
Released in March, Little Wars took five years and seven musicians to make. It is being called the band’s best effort since their classic The Faithful Anchor released in 2001.
The band has a brand new line-up for this tour which includes members of the Starlight Mints and Ester Drang.
I asked Ford what to expect on his return to Dayton.
He wrote, “fans can expect lots of songs from the new record and a few oldies as well. Also expect to get a taste of Little Wars in a live setting.”
Visit www.unwedsailor.net to some samples from the record and read the band’s blog.
