Unwed Sailor’s Brisk and Warm “West Coast Prism” is the Soundtrack to the Anticipation of a Future Road Trip

The summery mood and guitar shimmer in forward motion on Unwed Sailor’s “West Coast Prism” is the right sound for the beginning of a road trip. The music video with a view of a coastline captured on warping VHS or Super-8 with a color shift lends the song’s presentation a touch of nostalgia or maybe more properly that as a lens as something to look forward to from fond memories of previous jaunts. The layers of textural guitar, rhythm and melodic leads alongside uplifting synth and a steadily progressing and brisk beat keep the spirit fresh throughout the song and in typical fashion without words suggest a cinematic experience even without the visualizer. Fitting seeing as Unwed Sailor will be touring this spring from April 21 through May 2, 2026. Watch the video for “West Coast Prism” on YouTube and follow Unwed Sailor at the links below. The new album High Remembrance is out May 8 via Current Taste.
