Originating from Toledo, Ohio, (the) UnSlept has carved out a special sound all their own full of rock & roll soul, elements of grunge, dirty folk, with hints of angry southern heavily layered with dynamic tones. This three piece has constructed a sound that rings full and deep allowing them to each express their inner workings. Dan Cain delivers carefully crafted lyrics with a gritty, powerful vocal wail while double dealing rhythms and leads on guitar. J Dale Bailey brings the thunder with his mysterious resonate bass tones and rumbling swagger. Measure by measure (the) UnSlept’s uniform, yet magnetic cadency is fueled by Matt Austin’s booming drum technique.

(the) UnSlept has spent the last year perfecting their debut album, “Bad Chapters” at Mohawk studio with Shawn Patrick Thomas Daley at the helm. Bad Chapters is the result of years of living, loving, losing, and learning how to navigate the entanglement of the human condition. This album is a rattling junket which rudders through the abyss of rock and roll.

Most recently (the) UnSlept has continued grinding away writing new material that continues to flow out of the group. They remain committed to hitting the stage at every opportunity to share their perspective with new fans. They plan to proceed participating in the podcast and radio circuit to share their story and broadcast the infectious fervor which is the music they have created.
