HISTORY:

 

UNSPARING SEA is five people (J.R. Bennett, Tara Klein, Sarah Leitten, Mike Marks & Ryan Kelly) singing and playing instruments (guitar, cello, saw, bass & drums) making music about mistrust, misguidance, misfortune, misbehavior, misanthropy and missiles. Woozy sea chanteys and drunken hymns sung loudly from the golden shores of Lake Erie. Its probably the music Woodrow Wilson would have made had he been more musically inclined.
