Song-Inspired Band Names: Starsailor

Starsailor
Inspired by Tim Buckley's 'Star Sailor'


The Britpop band found their name in the title track of the late Tim Buckley's album 'Starsailor' (yes, the song is two words -- 'Star Sailor' -- but not the LP title). Originally named Waterface, they quickly came to their senses, only to lose them again when they agreed to work with Phil Spector.
