Rock Candy

Monster Collecting

The instrumental post-rock ambience of Unwed Sailor has been guided by the vision of Johnathon Ford since its inception in 1998. He formed Unwed Sailor in Seattle and has since been based in other cities including Chicago, Tulsa, and New Orleans.
Ford has leapt in a myriad of instrumental directions, from angular post-rock rhythms, to dreamy shoegaze soundscapes, to ambient folk. Through these directions, all of Unwed Sailor’s albums share a certain melodic sensibility, a flavor that’s undeniably Ford’s, yet each its own unique place in creating the 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 Music

“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)

“(Unwed Sailor’s) “Truth or Consequences” is poignant and poised, intimate but ambitious in its pursuit of connection.”
Under the Radar

“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.”
