Sky Sailing的创建人Adam Young即美国当红乐队Owl City的主唱也是唯一的成员,负责主音、合成器和编曲等工作。09年11月份,Owl City开启了中国巡演,陆续登陆香港、武汉、上海、北京的live house,所到之处现场观众爆棚,反响十分热烈。
“Before Owl City,there was Sky Sailing.”(在Owl City之前,是Sky Sailing。Adam官网为宣传Sky Sailing打出的醒目标题)Sky Sailing是Adam Young早期的一只乐队,目前有一张专辑《An Airplane Carried Me To Bed》。Sky Sailing的曲风区别于Owl City,并没有走电音路线,但依然是很清新的风格,给人很惬意的感觉。
