Sea Wolf played at The Earl on Sunday October 28th. Once in a while, Atlanta really surprises my by completely dropping the ball. This was one of those times. Although there was surprisingly only a handful of people out on Sunday, it seemed like the people that were there were happy that they showed up.
The ladies and gentlemen in Sea Wolf were not only totally cool (i.e. chatting with their fans) but they put on a killer live show. I can honestly say that this group sounds just as good live as their recorded material on Leaves In The River, if not better.
Eclectic music is often times hard to pull off, but the ladies on cello and keys were total pros and lead vocalist, Alex Brown Church is a star.
My favorite song, Black Dirt, went over well live but unfortunately isn't on their Myspace page. It's worth picking up the album (or downloading it on itunes) just for this song.
This might be the best show I have seen in a while and here's to hoping that Sea Wolf hits Atlanta again soon.

spot on review. they did indeed sound just like the LP, which was a welcome change from a lot (i.e., the majority) of bands that come through town. 'leaves in the river' is perfect music for the autumn.
Agreed. What a great show, eh?
very great show. (check out alex's other gig in the band irving if you dig amazingly well-done indie-pop.)
...two words. sea (space) wolf. he's so great, and i love irving as well.
Corrected.
I'll check it out. Thanks guys.
I was so sad I missed this show. I moved into a new apartment that day and sort of...passed out.. asleep...I know, it's both a lame and embarassing excuse. I esp wanted to go after he did a great interview with me for TALive.com
