Sea Wolf - New album 2012

I started listening to Sea Wolf shortly after his release Leaves in the River in 2007. He also came to Calgary a couple years ago and played a set at the Marquee Room which Spencer and I had the privilege of seeing. Sea Wolf released a limited edition 7" vinyl on Record Store Day - Black Friday last week with two rare tracks on it. You can catch one of those songs below and you can also head to the Sea Wolf Soundcloud Page to stream all of their music. I suggest you start with the album, Leaves in the River. Also, as the title of this post suggests, look for a new Sea Wolf release in 2012.

Enjoy the new track:


Where The Wind Blows by Sea Wolf
