Perils from the Sea is a collaborative studio album by American singer-songwriter Mark Kozelek and multi-instrumentalist Jimmy LaValle, released on April 30, 2013 on Caldo Verde Records.

Background and recording

On September 11, 2011, Sun Kil Moon's Mark Kozelek asked Jimmy LaValle, of The Album Leaf, to collaborate on a song, resulting in the album's opening track, "What Happened to My Brother". The two continued to work together over the next year, culminating in a finished album, Perils from the Sea.^[3]

"You Missed My Heart" previously appeared on Kozelek's 2013 live album Live at Phoenix Public House Melbourne.

Release

Perils from the Sea was originally set to be released under Kozelek and LaValle's monikers, Sun Kil Moon and The Album Leaf, and was released under these monikers in Japan and Taiwan.^[4]^[5]^[6]

"You Missed My Heart" was later covered by Phoebe Bridgers on her 2017 album Stranger in the Alps and a German version was released by Tristan Brusch as a single from his 2023 album Am Wahn.
