What You Should Know
The hep SoCal troubadour didn't set out to become a singer/songwriter – he was a skater in his youth and almost went pro. A devastating skateboarding accident changed all that, though, and Costa spent his time in rehab putting to tape rough demos on a four-track. Some of those recordings made their way to one Tom Dumont, No Doubt guitarist, and he was so impressed that he produced an EP, Songs We Sing, that he and Costa distributed on their own. Jack Johnson caught wind of the EP and re-released it after signing Costa to his own label, Brushfire Recordings. Costa followed up that 2006 reissue two years later with his debut full-length, Unfamiliar Faces.






gotta love him!
