Sean Costello: April 16, 1979 -- April 15, 2008
Sean Costello's outward personality was that of a normal, albeit talented and charismatic child and young man. Despite his innate shyness, he rose to the highest ranks of the blues world, playing with the icons of diverse genres of music. He captured the hearts of people around the world who came to love and admire him. What was not visible was the internal struggle that accompanied his creativity and prodigious talent - a struggle which was later diagnosed as Bipolar Disorder. Because of his unique interpretation of American roots music and his generous spirit, Sean's passing has ignited a burning desire to keep his personal and musical memory alive and to translate the human side of his suffering into action that will help in research, education, outreach and treatment efforts for Bipolar Disorder. www.seancostell...
I know I'm late but here it goes. I had the fortune of knowing and working with Sean (I'm a sound engineer) in Leysin, Switzerland and I was instantly blown away, not alone by his music but also by his easy going personality. It was a night I will never forget and I still can't believe the struggles he and his family had to go through. What remains is the feeling that I have been touched by a truly great artist and although you already know that I just thought that sharing this might bring a smile on somebody's face . All the best wishes and hugs to Sean's family!
I'm not sure how I didn't see this message before now. Thank you for mentioning Sean's personality. I am so proud of how he kept his humble, kind soul. Yes, he was talented, but sweet as well. People who knew him continue to feel love for him. Thank you for taking the time to write. (been to Switzerland once... it's beautiful). If you know of any good recordings of that night, please let me know. debbie@seancostellofund.org
I had the privilege of meeting Sean's parents years ago, early 00's, long before the days of youtube. I was working in their home. I had never heard of him and I flipped out when his Mom told me he plays with Levon. Just saying all that to say, they were genuine, warm, good folks. In the service industry there are some calls you will never forget. And that is one I'll never forget for sure. RIP Sean and Levon
Sean's Life should be a Movie by now..His story needs to be told..
Agree. Someone tried once. Just have to have the right contact.
I agree. Just don't have the right contacts, I guess.
lm South African n love the blues and the day l discover him l also found out he passed , what a shock a absolute bummer. May he rest in peace. Condolences to his family and friends !
Thank you. He would be honored to have touched a place so far from home.
Terrible enfermedad , estaba en su música , en su forma de tocar tan bestial ,un filósofo que tenía el martillo de Thor expresando belleza tristeza y fuerza
Escucha y mira la vida de Tommy Bolin
con todos los respetos a Sean fue un fenómeno humano, genio haciendo proezas con la guitarra que murió a los 26 años
lloramos a estos genios
His music lives. ❤️ That part of his soul that leaves for us
He was the greatest!!! This is a beautiful tribute.
Thank you
He was Great
I will always love the music of Sean Costello
His Genius, yes genius, will never leave. I never use that WORD lightly. I first fell in love with Blues music in 1965. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting and talking with Wolf, Muddy, Otis, Etc.. The list goes on. I was fortunate to live during those times. When I heard Sean Costello, I KNEW. I knew the music I loved was going to live. I don’t focus on his passing. The work he left us is magnificent. I feel a kinship with him. Not just his amazing music. I have been in recovery from addiction for 17 years. I can’t imagine how his family must feel. My sincerest Prayers go to them. I understand he was sensitive. I know that feeling all too well. Ya, you can’t take his music away, That’s here until the World comes to an end. I Pray his Family and Loved One’s can find some solace and peace in this. To his Family, I wish to say, he was, and remains REAL! Real in the sense that he played this music as well as ANYONE. This includes the past Masters of Blues and Soul. He wasn’t a poser. He had that SOMETHING that ya just can’t put into mere words. He was real. Yes Real
Thank you and congratulations on your sobriety. Sean was trying. I do live in hope of making treatment for bipolar disorder for creatives, especially musicians, better, but also to keep his music alive. It's what he lived for. I feel he left that as part of my life's purpose.
Still listening to his music every week, a unique and special talent. Love from Ireland, so sorry I will never see and hear him play live.
Thank you. Sean was half Irish descent. I think that's where he got his soul. I've seen there is even a Sean Costello street in Ireland. I keep thinking maybe they'll do a benefit in his honor :)
I just wished many more people will listen to this man, a genius of the guitar.
Still missing him today !
💔
I saw him play in Roswell Ga.
Loved Sean! He was so gracious to take pic with me(coming back out) after retiring to his trailer.I'll never forget that! So powerful on stage he was just incredible!! RIP
Sean was as kind as talented. He sincerely appreciated his fans.
@MrBetoTap I certainly agree and it was what Sean wished for. If you can think of a way to spread his talent, I'm happy to listen. One way would be for friends on Facebook to post a video and ask their friends to share. Once you hear him, you are hooked! Thank you for your kind comment. (Sean's Mom)
Thank you Sean.
We all miss you and your music.
May you rest in peace 💜
I only discovered this amazing and soulful guitarist just now....stunning techniques and the feelings from within made him a unique star... now up in heaven...thanks man for your music!!!
Rest in peace forever, Sean...We miss you every day.
Almost six years ago, my son died on the eve of his 29th birthday. After over a decade of seeking answers for depression, anxiety, sleep issues and alcohol dependence, he finally received an accurate diagnosis of bipolar disorder. Desperately wanting to be healthy, he entered a treatment program which turned out to be unprepared to help him. He died just trying to sleep.
This was a tragedy for his friends and family; however, it is also a scenario played out too often.

seancostellofund I am so very sorry for the loss of your son. I just came upon his music yesterday & was immediately taken by what I can only describe as "raw soul". I just found out about 5 min ago that he's no longer with us, yet my heart feels so heavy! I can only imagine the impact his life had on those who know & love him. 💜
My heart goes out to you and your family and Sean's friends. I just discovered his music this morning on our local public radio station and was immediately taken by his incredible soulful singing and great guitar playing. My daughter was diagnosed with early stage BD (she's only 10) and is also incredibly talented and we have gone through some extremely difficult heart-wrenching episodes where she is almost a completely different person. I admit that my greatest fear is that she won't make it through her adolescent years despite our love and constant support. I can say that Sean's music will live on through other artists - I'm a musician and can say his playing is going to have an influence on my blues playing - and in that sense he will never die. I don't know how I didn't discover him before this but I'm glad I did and will be listening to him a lot from now on!
Hey Debbie. "He died just trying to sleep" hit home hard. I'm betting that in the years since you posted this you've saved somebody.
I saw him once on stage in Menen, Belgium and i see him for the rest of my life. He came in every cell of your blues loving body and stay's there forever. Look at "nowildwolf" for the best movie i ever have made in my live. We never forget.
I want to thank every person who leaves a loving thought of Sean. It really does make a difference to me. I miss him every day. You help keep his memory alive.
Your kind comment led me to take some action. I've asked all of my FB friends to share Sean w/ their FB friends and ask them to do the same. Passing on the work of the Fund as well. Hoping it does what you wished for.
So glad to find this because I am having a tough time putting this thing down. To Sean's family and friends and fans..... I love him too and I wish he were back. Heartbroken and need to heal.
I remain heartbroken, so understand your love. I just found this post, so I'm hoping time has healed.
BIG fan of Sean!! So missed !
This is a beautiful tribute
RIP Sean. Great cause!
Thank you! RIP Sean
Thank you for telling us. It´s so sad to hear he did not got the help in time. We miss a good musician and I think, without knowing Sean, also a nice human being.
He was an amazing person.
Exactly what I felt.
If you think you might have BD, please visit our website for links that may help you get treatment. It is important to get evaluated as soon as possible to prevent complications of the disorder.
how tragic, to be outside looking in, and never know how it is, to feel that surge of pressure, to want to hide and all you have is a spotlight, a streetfight and a sleepless night. I am repeatedly tested. I entered a lookalike contest for myself and came in 9th (true story) so to be the demon inside myself, I survive by fighting every breath, inside this party balloon, and no I don't care if I die, I dare it every chance I can't help it, it is not the dominion of artists, poets and musicians, most quietly suffer until they fade. Sean was beautiful to express as he did, I listen to this dialogue and it leaves me empty, so much is assumed and so many are discarded- is it more deadly to be in the focus when a man wants the shade of shadows and scattered sunshine only -or is it better to never at all be noticed and wish someone, anyone would simply ask if you're ok. I am. My brother is lost, many friends lost- BD kills by taking away our feeling of life, pulse surges into a funnel cloud and then a tornado in the heart. I will survive this. Sean made awareness. There are many need to be noticed, not so many who can express. I am fine ok, yet for those who feel these demons are the dominion of the artistic, please consider how much worse it is for our own who can not express it, and be open. Every homeless person and every war vet, all of us who have had violent upbringings, and mine was uber- uber, so I keep on, yet I feel heavy some go without any concern and why, would these poor souls be more respected if they played a bad ax or wrote for auction and ghost, paint a masterwork, nah, What about the silent sufferings... Sean thank you, I'm going home to wander, and wander I shall. See you soon bro. We have some howling to do. I'm pissed off, damn it. I will miss you.
I am so sorry that I just found this post. I understand that there are many others who have bipolar disorder and cannot express the feelings in a way that connect with people. Yes, we do focus on creatives, especially musicians, because their lives have very specifice challenges... travel with sleep deprivation, easy access to drugs and alcohol, the fickle nature of the industry; however, the research will help everyone with the disease. One part of our mission is to reduce the stigma and demonstrate that there is no one face of BD. No one realized Sean's struggles. He was handsome, nice, talented.... and depressed and manic and frustrated and sad.... Hopefully, acceptance will come with talking about Sean.
@@theseancostellofund I write today with appreciation for all of us, caught in the fight and in the fuss, just to say, we are one community, and we will all see a better day. " Deja View"
Spiritual pilgrims,
we ride the fringe;
dancing destiny
into grace…
we are sure of
an unseen force.
The face of fortune
is my face.
Fate my friend
may be as a perpetual stranger,
never less than familiar.
For we have been
exactly here before
in the visions we have since realized… ------------------------------------------------- I now do Field Accords and every soul I help helps me help myself. Your post is very timely and I thank you as a kindred soul. Be well. High spirits and always love to us all! Truly so.... ~RaVen DaWn~
thank you. i think i now know whats wrong with me.
Sean aimait les Francais!
