The rather lush Adam Young started Sky Sailing in 2006, a year before he started Owl City. The music is mostly piano and acoustic guitar, and sounds more gorgeous than Johnny Depp mixed with Hugh Laurie with a bit of Christian Bale thrown in (ahhhhh)
One album has been produced by Sky Sailing, An Airplane Carried Me To Bed, and it features some pretty awesome songs. My personal favourite is Sailboats (listen to the lyrics and you'll realise why- they mention a rather fabulous actress whom I am a little bit addicted to)
For some reason, Adam didn't released it until 13th July, 2010.
So that is the conundrum of Sky Sailing solved (yey! alliteration!). Give it a listen on YouTube or Spotify or iTunes or whatever. It is fantastic. Fantastic, I tell you!
