When Matt Costa started working on the songs for his sixth record Yellow Coat, he’d been on tour for the better part of two years and had just ended a relationship of almost a decade. The music needed to exist, and it was as much an emotional exercise as a creative one. “I think every other record that I've written, I wrote knowing that the songs would have an outlet,” Costa says “And for this one, I really didn’t. It was just a process I was going through, clearing myself of these feelings and thoughts.” The songs were like Costa’s letters to himself, with the honesty and intimacy of something that was not meant to be heard. “ I feel really close to them for that reason,” he says. “Some of my favorite writing is like that - Vincent Van Gogh’s Dear Theo, or Steinbeck’s A Life in Letters. Those are really revealing, because it’s not intended as part of their body of work. There’s something really special about that. But at the same time, I write songs and perform for a living. So it's hard to think these songs will never see the light of day.”

Sea Wolf has released Through A Dark Wood (Deluxe), an expanded digital edition of acclaimed songwriter Alex Brown Church’s latest album, released at the dawn of the pandemic in March of 2020. The new set adds 5 previously-unreleased songs to the tracklist which come from the original sessions where Church, emerging from a bruising divorce, wrote, recorded and scrapped a full album's worth of material before starting anew. “Having the deluxe album come out now feels about right,” Church remarked. “We’re still in the pandemic, but we’ve gained some perspective, changed some priorities, and many of us are working to change our stories. The addition of these songs serves as a redux of the album, and offers it up to be considered again in light of all that’s happened. With me personally, and with everyone else, ”Through A Dark Wood (Deluxe) features the new singles “Witchknife” and “Reflections On A Grey Dawn” featuring Dustin O’Halloran, the acclaimed composer and pianist. The album also includes contributions by longtime Sea Wolf collaborators Lisa Fendelander (keyboards), Scott Leahy (guitar) and Joey Ficken (drums), as well as Zac Rae (keyboards) and Francesco Le Metre(orchestrator).
