a.. RIP Sean Costello 4/16/79-4/15/08: This shocking and sad news just in
from Steve Hecht of Piedmont Talent: Blues singer/guitarist Sean Costello
was found today dead in his hotel room in Atlanta, Georgia. He would have
been 29 tomorrow. Cause of death is not known at present but details will
posted on the Piedmont Talent website as they are revealed. Sean had
recently released his fourth CD, We Can Get Together on the Delta Groove
Record Label, and was a featured guitarist on the acclaimed new Nappy
Brown
CD Long Time Coming on Blind Pig Records. A handsome young man with
amazing
guitar ability, a fine voice, and a strong sense of carrying forward the
tradition of the blues, Sean was a rising star with a brilliant career in
front of him. In a world where we sorrowfully watch so many elder
statesman
of the blues pass, the loss this youthful bright light is especially hard
to
take. Rest in peace, Sean.
