A Sad Replay....Sean Costello....We Can Get Together!

It is with great sadness that I report the death of young Sean Costello. He was found in an Atlanta hotel room yesterday and as yet, we are told no reason why. He would have been 29 today.

It was less than two months ago that Lori and I went to see him play at The Viper Room in Hollywood. Mr. Costello was one of the most vital new Blues men to come along the hard road in many a year.

I did an interview with Sean the next day. As we sat in my car and spoke, I could see he was under tremendous strain of keeping up with the traveling, bookings etc.

God Speed Sean. It was a pleasure meeting you.

Last week-end we found ourselves traveling throughout Southern California. During long drives I like to listen to new material and get a fix on what's happening on the blues scene through new CD releases.

I told Lori to pick one of the CDs and pop it in the player. She chose Sean Costello's new release on Delta Groove Productions, We Can Get Together.

Let's put it this way....the man is unique. Costello's guitar playing is dirty and clean with a choice of notes which accent the feel of the song he's playing at the time. He's a natural Bluesman and a terrific writer. His vocals expose his feelings and contribute to an overall, enthralling experience.

Mr. Costello has had several CDs released and has garnered accolades from some major folks. You can find this history on his web site below.

Stay Tuned!
