Miles High Productions Press Release: Sean Costello 1979 - 2008
Los Angeles, April 16, 2008-Delta Groove recording artist Sean Costello passed away in Atlanta, GA on Tuesday, April 15th, one day before his 29th birthday. Sean was not only a member of the Delta Groove musical family, he was also a friend, and words cannot express the sorrow we feel at having to say goodbye so soon. Losing someone as young, vibrant, and talented as Sean, who had accomplished so much in just a few short years and still had so much potential is a terribly difficult blow, not only to those who knew him personally, but for the music community as a whole. He had been unanimously praised as one of the main torch-bearers of the blues flame for the coming generations, and now that potential will go sadly unfulfilled.
