Winter Makes Sailors

Moving On

Anyway

Winter Makes Sailors is the car that drives the engine of Sean Gardner, a Columbus,Ohio music fixture who has played up and down the main streets of mid-western cities in a variety of bands for the last decade. He lives a simple life with his wife, he works as a third-grade teacher and spends his weekends teaching guitar and crafting his own music. While Moving On carries the full sound of a band, it is in reality much more of a collection of friends coming together to help Sean exhale the music he makes, at times it is reflective of growing up in rural Ohio ("I think My Time Has Come") while others show the best of orchestrated pop music at its finest ("Maybe Someday Soon" & "On The Beach") all carry echoes of spinning vinyl records that support a 4am seduction, such as The Kinks "Something Else", Elliot Smith, Jeepster Records and the oft forgotten Silos. Sean pulls it all with a stellar sense of pop song arrangement. Dig in.
