 Notes & Reviews
 
 
Full title is: Leaves in the River


Sea Wolf is the vehicle for Alex Brown Church's songs who is not only Sea Wolf's songwriter and singer but also the band's only invariable member. Born in the small gold rush town of Columbia, Calif., Church's musical memories were shaped by ad-hoc bluegrass outfits playing for tourists on sidewalks of his hometown and platters of Beatles and Willie Nelson on his mom's turntable. The Songs of Sea Wolf's first full-length effort, Leaves In The River are awash with longing for distant places visited, lived and loved, and are molded by the geography of his past -- the long, winding descent from the Sierra foothills to the hazy shores of Barbary Coast, where Church has always gravitated. As a kid, Church himself trekked across Europe and the U.S. with his mother, including stays in Alaska and Hawaii and a year living in a leaky tent in the French countryside. He spent most of his formative years living in the Bay Area and went east to attend film school at NYU. But, like his songs, the setting was always fully intertwined with the narrative.
