[Indie/Folk] Sea Wolf – Turn The Dirt Over

sea wolf [Indie/Folk] Sea Wolf   Turn The Dirt Over

Sea Wolf is a band led by Alex Brown Church, an indie folk musician based in Los Angeles, California

As stated on allmusic.com, much like Iron & Wine and similar indie outfits, Sea Wolf is the project name of a sole singer/songwriter who drafts in other musicians as the occasion warrants. That singer/songwriter is Alex Church, a California native who looks to local authors like John Steinbeck and Jack London (whose 1904 novel The Sea Wolf provided the band name) for inspiration.

It’s always hard to remember that Sea Wolf hasn’t been around since my youth, states Radio Free Chicago, Something about his albums feels like “timeless indie”, the type of stuff I listened to in my early teens right along side Pavement and Built To Spill.

His very calming instrumentations paired with Church’s soft vocals makes his latest album, White Water a delightful breeze to listen.

    At times, he almost – ALMOST – reminds me of The Honorary Title, as far as styling goes. And that is not a bad thing.
