His dreams of passing pro came blinking to an end, all the same, when he badly injured his ramification in a skateboarding accident at 18. During his year-and-a-half-long rehabilitation time period, Costa decided to refocus his energy on songwriting and guitar playing, and began exploitation a four-track to make demos.

These caught the ear of Brush Fire Records proprietor Jack Johnson, wHO was impressed by the young musician's work and signed Costa to his label and invited him to undefendable his 2005 summer tour.
