Get to the River Before It Runs Too Low

Sea Wolf is the vehicle for Alex Church's songs. Born in the small gold rush town of Columbia, CA, his musical memories were shaped by ad hoc bluegrass outfits playing for tourists on sidewalks of his hometown, coupled with Beatles and Willie Nelson records on his mom's turntable. The sound he sought and achieved on this record is a combination of delicate, arching melodies and foggy, elegiac narratives. Over the spare instrumentation, his voice can be weary or buoyant, but it's always capable of leaving an indelible impression. "Lushly orchestrated indie rock" - LA Times.
