Next Elvis #13: Sky Sailing

Info: Sky Sailing is one of the many side projects of Adam Young, the man behind Owl City. I came across Sky Sailing when I was perusing the web for content for another post. Sky Sailing is merely acoustic guitar, piano, and voicebox, and I have seen it described as simply "Owl City unplugged," but I think that there is a lot more promise here. Building off Owl City's massive success in the past year, yet developing a different style of expression, Sky Sailing will likely be able to cut out its own niche and remain uniquely independent. Right now, there are two demos up on Sky Sailing's MySpace page, and the record is scheduled to drop on July 13. Let's hope the rest of it is as good as what's up there now.

Sounds Kind of Like: The Send, The Postal Service, and of course, Owl City.

Bio: Check out this introductory blog on Sky Sailing's MySpace.

Why it's going to be the next Elvis: Sky Sailing seems to have some pretty nice, refreshing tunes. Plus, interest is almost guaranteed on the heels of Young's recent successes.
