THAT I ENGAGED IN THE INAPPROPRIATE INCIDENTS FALSELY DEPICTED IN THE MEDIA. I
INTEND TO VIGOROUSLY DEFEND MYSELF AGAINST THESE UNTRUTHFUL ALLEGATIONS AND TO
PURSUE AND PROTECT MY RIGHTS IN THE EVENT THAT FALSE AND DEFAMATORY STATEMENTS
ARE FURTHER DISSEMINATED OR PUBLISHED.

MARK KOZELEK AND KEVIN CORRIGAN:
THE PANTHER AND THE HONEY BADGER (A CORRESPONDENCE)
ZHAO TAO (A CORRESPONDENCE)

BOOK RELEASES - JUNE 30, 2020, CALDO VERDE RECORDS

PRE-ORDER: THE PANTHER AND THE HONEY BADGER »

PRE-ORDER: ZHAO TAO »

“THIS UNUSUAL DOUBLE MEMOIR IS FILLED WITH MANY PLEASURES, MOST OF ALL THE
PLEASURE OF EAVESDROPPING ON A CONVERSATION BETWEEN TWO ARTISTS, AS THEY REVEAL,
ALMOST IN REAL TIME, THE DAILY RHYTHMS AND TRIALS OF BEING A TOURING, WORKING
PERFORMER, THE EFFORT IT TAKES TO GET ON STAGE DAY AND NIGHT. KOZELEK AND
CORRIGAN ARE NOT TRYING TO IMPRESS YOU; THEY WRITE WITHOUT PROPS OR MASKS. THE
STANDARD GHOST-WRITTEN ROCK MEMOIR CAN NEVER APPROACH THIS KIND OF HONEST
INTIMACY.” —DEAN WAREHAM (GALAXIE 500, LUNA)

“FOLLOWING THE CREATIVE PATH OF MARK KOZELEK IS ONE OF THE GREAT JOYS OF THE
LAST SEVERAL DECADES. FROM THE SOUL-BARING BEAUTY OF HIS SONGWRITING AND
PERFORMING, TO THE SONIC LANDSCAPES OF HIS ALBUMS WITH RED HOUSE PAINTERS AND
SUN KIL MOON AND BEYOND, KOZELEK CREATES A MOOD OF DEPTH AND FEELING LIKE NO ONE
ELSE. NOW MARK EXPANDS HIS HORIZONS YET AGAIN WITH A MESMERIZING EXTENDED
CORRESPONDENCE WITH ACTOR KEVIN CORRIGAN. LIKE HIS BEST MUSIC, THE LAYERS SWIRL
AND BUILD AND SUDDENLY YOU’RE IN A WORLD YOU NEVER WANT TO LEAVE. VIVA KOZELEK!
VIVA CORRIGAN!” —CAMERON CROWE

"A GREAT SONG IS LIKE A LETTER FROM ABROAD, A SHARING OF EXPERIENCE AND LESSON
FROM A TRUSTED SOURCE ON ANOTHER PATH. IN THAT SPIRIT, THIS BOOK OF DISPATCHES
BETWEEN MARK KOZELEK – ONE OF MY FAVORITE CORRESPONDENTS ON HIS RECORDS WITH RED
HOUSE PAINTERS AND SUN KIL MOON – AND ACTOR KEVIN CORRIGAN IS A GREATEST HITS OF
DAILY, EMOTIONAL REPORTING: THE RITUALS, TRIALS, MEMORIES AND DISCOVERIES OF TWO
FRIENDS ON THE FRONT LINES OF THEIR WORK, HOLDING BACK NOTHING IN WIT AND
PASSIONATELY HONEST JUDGEMENT." —DAVID FRICKE , MOJO, SIRIUS XM RADIO

“THIS BOOK IS SO GOOD IT COULDN’T BE CONTAINED IN ONE VOLUME! INDIE LEGENDS IN
MUSIC (MARK KOZELEK) AND FILM (KEVIN CORRIGAN) SPENT A YEAR CORRESPONDING WITH
EACH OTHER VIA EMAIL, DOCUMENTING THEIR STRUGGLE OF TRYING TO CREATE ART WHILE
MAINTAINING ONE’S INTEGRITY IN THESE DEBASED TIMES. THINK MY DINNER WITH ANDRE
WITHOUT THE FOOD AND THE BOURGEOIS SENSIBILITY. BOTH WORKING CLASS KIDS NOW IN
THEIR FIFTIES, THE TWO FRIENDS OPEN UP WITH SUBLIME HONESTY ABOUT LOVE,
RELATIONSHIPS, THEIR FAVORITE MUSICIANS, THE JOYS OF NEIGHBORHOOD DINERS,
PICKING A GOOD DENTIST AND THE VARIOUS OTHER MUNDANITIES OF LIFE WHEN NOT IN
FRONT OF A MICROPHONE OR A CAMERA. AT TURNS HILARIOUS, AT TIMES POIGNANT, THIS
IS A WONDERFUL DOCUMENTATION OF TWO WORKERS IN ART DOING THEIR BEST TO GET
THROUGH.” —LARRY “RATSO” SLOMAN, AUTHOR AND SONGWRITER

Hal Willner

Thank you for bringing so many of us together. I'm absolutely devastated to hear
of your loss today. You gave me some of the best memories I have in music.

The world of music will not be the same without you.

Your inspiration will carry us through and you'll live in our hearts forever.

Rest In Peace

DECEMBER 18, 2019


Friends and fans,

Thank you to everyone who turned up for the shows this year in Australia, New
Zealand, USA and Canada.

I released two collaborative albums this year; I Also Want to Die in New Orleans
featuring Donny McCaslin and Jim White and Joey Always Smiled featuring Petra
Haden. There was also the Sun Kil Moon live album recorded in Brisbane,
Australia.

I enjoyed all all of the shows and my favorite was The Masonic Temple in
Asheville, North Carolina. Nice staff, great sound, and Isabel Castelvi played
cello beautifully.

I'd never played outside of the major markets in Australia until this year. On
the way to Castlemaina from Melbourne I saw Kangaroos for the first time in my
life. One stood taller than me and that was something to write home about.

I have a few books in the works. The payphone book I mentioned last year, 500
Payphones, has been more time consuming than I thought and will be released
sometime next year.

Two books co-written by Kevin Corrigan and I will be released May 5th, 2020. The
books are a 365 day dialog broken up into 2 volumes called The Panther and The
Honey Badger and Zhao Tao.

I finished a spoken word album the night before Thanksgiving. The stories are
told over ambient music. With the help of pro-tools and a skilled engineer I was
able to play piano on all songs except for two. The double- CD, entitled All The
Best, Isaac Hayes, will be released on April 24, 2020.

I've got a Christmas show with Kevin Corrigan tomorrow night in Brooklyn and I
look forward to singing Christmas music with him.

Thank you to Scott, Chris, Ben, Patrick, Ramon, Kevin, Jim, Petra, Isabel,
Nathan, Will, Tony and Donny for making music with me this year.

Thank you Caroline for your love and support.

My best of list for 2019:

Concert: Robert Plant at Hardly Strictly Bluegrass
Series: Godfather of Harlem
Movie: Once Upon A Time In Hollywood
Book: Holly Throsby - Cedar Valley
Year highlight: Talking boxing with Joyce Carol Oates at City Lights Books.
Most impressive win in boxing: Ruiz vs Anthony Joshua 1
Album - Gia Margaret - There's Always Glimmer
Meal - Thanksgiving with Caroline in San Francisco

Happy Holidays to all!

DECEMBER 7, 2018

Friends and fans,

It’s been a busy and productive year in music. The year started with a benefit
concert for the 2017 Sonoma/Santa Rosa fires in January at Gundlach Bundschu
Winery and ended with a Christmas show with Kevin Corrigan at The Loft at City
Winery in NYC on December 2. And there is still another- a Butte Strong benefit
concert at The Chico Women’s Club in Chico, California, December 16. All
proceeds go to those who lost homes in the Butte County fires. Thank you to The
Chico Women’s Club and Boris for putting this important show together. I’ll
never forget the smell of smoke and the dense grey skies during my walks through
the Marina while I was home for a short break in between tours.

My favorite tour this year was the October European tour where I was joined by
Ben Boye on piano and Ramon Fermin on guitar. The tour started in London and
ended in Bilbao. The combination of piano and nylon string guitar left a lot of
room for not only my vocals, but for Ramon and Ben to shine. Our momentum built
more with each show. With musicians as good as Ben and Ramon, I always went on
stage feeling confident and it was a tour that I felt sad to say goodbye to.

My favorite one-off show was Montenegro with Ramon Fermin on guitar and Chris
Connolly on piano. That was the most vacation-like show I’d ever played in my
life. I swam every day, developed a funny rapport with the hotel maids, had
great meals, and nice encounters with stray cats along the Bay of Kotor.

I released two records this year. Singing songs, live, from the self-titled Mark
Kozelek album is euphoria. My only regret about the album is that I wish “666
Post” was longer. During my most recent tour in Europe, Ben and I played “I
Cried During Wall Street” during a show in Berlin on my dad’s 85th birthday. I
can’t seem to write enough songs about how much I love my dad, but when I sing
that one, I feel an especially deep connection with him. I called him that night
from Berlin to tell him Happy Birthday and how much I love him. He’s 85 years
old and he’s not only my best friend, but he’s my biggest inspiration. All of
his friends have passed, plus 7 of his 8 siblings, and he somehow manages to go
to Panera Bread every other day.

This Is My Dinner was released on November 1. I never knew that these songs
written so quickly on airplanes, music written during soundchecks, plus the
entire album being recorded in 4 days, would receive so much attention. This, to
me, is testament that making impactful and meaningful albums doesn’t mean
slaving away at songs for a year and being in a studio for another year under
the scrutiny of music industry hangers-on.

In regards to art, I relate to Henry Miller on the following quotes:

"We don't have to turn out a masterpiece every day. To paint, is the thing, not
to make masterpieces."

"The language of society is conformity. The language of the creative individual
is freedom."

"I have faith in the man who is writing, who is myself, the writer."

"The great writer is the symbol of life. Of the non-perfect."

"All that the critics write about a work of art, even at best, even when most
sound, convincing, plausible, even when done with love, which is seldom, is as
nothing compared to the actual mechanics, the real genetics of a work of art."
-Henry Miller


There’s always something that triggers an album and sets it in a direction.
Buying a 5-CD Segovia set in Wellington, New Zealand inspired Admiral Fell
Promises. Reading a John Connolly book in an old house in California inspired
Among the Leaves. A text between Jimmy LaValle and I sparked Perils from The
Sea. The sudden death of a second cousin inspired my love letter to Ohio, Benji.
The toxicity and tension building up to the 2016 election inspired Common as
Light and Love Are Red Valleys of Blood. Music written and recorded in hotel
rooms in San Francisco is my love letter to San Francisco, Mark Kozelek. And a
European tour in November of 2017 inspired the nostalgic travelogue, This Is My
Dinner.

The songs on This Is My Dinner don’t represent all of my experiences in Europe
by any stretch, but do capture a handful of memories of 25 years’ worth of
travels there. I have a lot of love for my friends there who have supported me
since the 1990s and continue to make time for me though they all have families
now. They know who they are and they live in my heart and soul every day. Their
gifts over the years are the fruit bowls on my tables, the lamps that light my
bedside reading, and the Portuguese guitar on many of my albums.

I’ve got a new Sun Kil Moon album due out April 12, 2019, entitled I Also Want
to Die in New Orleans. The album was originally titled Mark Kozelek with Donny
McCaslin and Jim White. But after walking through the Mission District in San
Francisco and seeing a poster for the $uicide Boy$ album, I Want to Die in New
Orleans, I immediately knew that the name for this album would be: I Also Want
to Die in New Orleans. The reason is because of my love for New Orleans and
specifically a line from the song Cows: “If I die eating crawfish and Gulf Coast
oysters in New Orleans, know that I died happy.” Thank you, $uicide Boy$, for
inspiring the title.

In addition to all of the above, I’m just finishing work on a 6-song full length
album featuring artists Petra Haden, Jason Lindner, Kevin Corrigan, Steve
Shelley, Donny McCaslin, Ben Boye, and other great talents. My guess is a July
release on that one. Moniker/album title/song titles to be announced in
February. The album was recorded throughout 2018 at Portland’s Ice Cream Party,
Amsterdam’s IJland Studios, and San Francisco’s Hyde Street Studios.

The fall of 2019 will also see the release of two books I’ve had in the works
via Rough Trade Publishing. One is a lyric book, Nights of Passed Over 2 – which
includes all lyrics I’ve written and released from Admiral fell Promises to the
present. This includes not only 14 full length albums during that period, but
also singles and songs from various EPs.

And there is my photo book, 500 Payphones – a book that I’ve been working on
since 2012. It’s a collection of payphone photos that I’ve taken around the
world; the purpose is to document the decline of the payphone. All of the photos
were taken with disposable cameras and a flip phone.

I’m also at work on a tour documentary for the band Xylouris/White with the help
of a friend who helped me film them during portions of their 2018 tour. I’m in
early editing stages but it’s my goal to capture the power of this duo’s live
show and to have the film out by 2020. And I started www.markkozelek.com back in
2017. It’s there for whoever wants to take a look. Mostly photos taken during
tours and studio sessions.

Thank you to my girlfriend Caroline for her love and support. Thank you to Tony,
Scott, Ramon, Kevin, Chris, Steve, Jim, Ben, Donny, Joan, Emily, Ramon, Chris,
Petra, Jeff, Patrick, Town Hall Ensemble, and Jordan for making music with me
this year.

A huge thanks to Nathan Winter for his hard work in the studio and flying to San
Francisco so many times from New York.

Thank you to Robert Vickers, Brian Azer, Redeye, and to Rough Trade for all of
their help and support.

Thank you to Phoebe Bridgers and Aidan Gillen for their thoughtful and
intelligent interviews in regards to my 2018 releases.


My favorites list of 2018:

Best Concert: David Crosby in San Francisco
Best book: Iron Ambition - My Life with Cus D’Amato by Mike Tyson with Larry
“Ratso” Sloman
Best album: Hunter’s Chorus – Old Growler – Caldo Verde Records
Best song: Christmas in Nightmare City – Advance Base
Best documentary: Quincy
Best Movie: Lizzie
Best Series – Room 104
Best time: swimming with Caroline in the American River
Best fight: Jennings vs Dimitrenko
Goals for 2019: More time at the gym. Record Mark Kozelek with Ben Boye and Jim
White 2.

Thank you for all of your support, for buying my music or streaming it or
however you listen to it, and for making it out to the concerts.

Peace and Happy Holidays to all.

DAILY EMERALD: EMERALD RECOMMENDS - THE BEST CONCERTS OF 2017

READ MORE »






DECEMBER 21, 2017

At this time last year, after a final tour date of the year in Rapid City, South
Dakota, I made a decision to take a break from touring in 2017. The three
previous years were the busiest tour years of my life and it was time to take
some time off. It was nice to spend my first summer off, in many years, spending
time with my girlfriend and her cat, fishing and visiting friends. But I
couldn't and don't know how to stay away from making music. I not only managed
to somehow release four albums this year, but also recorded two new records that
are in their final stages. Both will be released under the Sun Kil Moon moniker,
and are very different albums. One of the albums was recorded in hotel rooms in
San Francisco throughout the year, with mobile gear, mostly recorded on a 1960
Fender Jazzmaster guitar. The album was recorded at hotels to take a break from
the dark, windowless atmosphere of studios, and to see how atypical recording
environments would affect my music. My guess is that the album title and track
listing will be announced by February, and I'll likely release the album early
next summer.

The other album was written during a Sun Kil Moon tour in November of this year,
partly recorded in Copenhagen during that tour, and also at Hyde Street Studios
in San Francisco after returning home in early December. The lyrics were written
on trains and planes between those concert dates and the music was written
quickly when we arrived at soundchecks in various cities. The 3 non-original
songs on the album include a cover of The Partridge Family's "Come On Get Happy"
in honor of the late David Cassidy, a new, amped up cover version of "Rock 'N'
Roll Singer" by AC/DC, in honor of the late Malcolm Young (and features Jordan
Cook from Reignwolf on guitar), and another track is "Chapter 87" of John
Connolly's novel He, set to music. I'm mixing the album in Buffalo, NY, at GCR
Studios, as I write this, and will likely release it in early November next
year, as the atmosphere of the album is heavily November themed.

In addition to this, I've just signed off on final score work for the
beautifully directed James Franco film "The Pretenders."

Though I only did three tours this year, it was great to share the stage with,
and/or make music with many wonderful friends and musicians including Steve
Shelley, Sean Yeaton, Scott McPherson, Jim White, Ben Boye, Kevin Corrigan,
Josh, Rachel, and Petra Haden, Minna Choi, Neil Finn, Nels Cline, Ramon Fermin,
Tony Scherr, Chris Connolly, Holly Throsby, Low, Jordan Cook, and many others.

Thank you to Tony Visconti, John Connolly, and Conor Oberst for the interviews.
Thank you to Rough Trade and Redeye for their continued support. Thank you
Nathan for the hard work. Thank you to all of my friends (many mentioned above,
the rest know who they are) for their love, kindness and inspiration throughout
the years. A big thanks to my fans who turned up everywhere from Auckland to
Chicago to Dublin. At almost 51 years old, and 25 years into my career, I'm
still living my dream - and I'm grateful to all of you.

My 2017 favorites list:
Favorite concert: Thurston Moore Group at The Chapel, San Francisco
Favorite book: Goodwood by Holly Throsby
Favorite movie: Snow On Tha Bluff (Netflix)
Favorite TV Series: Dice (Showtime)
Favorite fight: Mayweather vs McGregor
Favorite album: Spain- Live At The Love Song

Happy Holidays to all!
Mark Kozelek, December 21, Buffalo NY.

once met a girl from Roanoke, Virginia
her eyes were green her hair was red

we'd fuck like bunnies all day on her waterbed

we listened to Husker Du's
Candy Apple Grey
and Warehouse Songs and Stories
so many times that my ears bled

DECEMBER 16, 2016

2016 was a beautiful, busy and crazy soap opera of a year, as well as a very
prolific time for me. In addition to releasing Jesu/Sun Kil Moon in January,
there was also Sings Favorites which is the best album I ever made (according to
my dad).

This year found me on tour to some extent or another every month of the year.
Most of the tours were overseas. It was fun to play outdoor music festivals in
Italy and in beautiful venues in the UK, but sad to wake up to terrible news
happening back in the USA - mostly in regards to mass shootings.

The only time that I was able to completely tune the news out (and the election
saga) was during a 5-day trip to China in late October/early November, where
they don't have CNN and my band members didn't have easy access to social media.
I found that trip to be the most peaceful of all of the tours we did - and it
was only days before the election.

From the summer onward, Trump's face was all over newsstands. The buildup to the
election and the shootings made their way into my new album, obviously. As Conor
Oberst put it so perfectly at our show in Nashville, "you'd have to have no
brain and no soul, for these things to not affect you".

Common As Light And Love Are Red Valleys Of Blood, for the most part, captures
events from January to August of this year and how I processed it all while
traveling.

Another album was in the works at the same time: the follow up to Jesu/Sun Kil
Moon's self-titled debut album. Our second album, entitled 30 Seconds To The
Decline Of Planet Earth, will be released on May 5. I'm blessed to have met the
very talented Justin Broadrick and to have made these beautiful albums with him.

These two new albums capture more than my reactions to mass murders or the
passing of beloved heroes like David Bowie or Muhammad Ali. The Sun Kil Moon and
Jesu/Sun Kil Moon albums are also full of love, humor, and my gratitude for the
gift of life.

It's been great to share the stage this year with Justin, Steve Shelley, Scott
McPherson, Jim White, Low, Conor Oberst, The Murder of Crowes, David J, Ben
Boye, Joan Wasserman, Marc Cappelle, The Oakland Interfaith Gospel Choir, Minna
Choi and Magik Magik, and many other great musicians, as well as countless
audience members invited from the crowd to sing songs with us.

On a very personal note, my saddest moments this year were the news of a friend
named Butch who passed away in May, and the passing my old friend Dorothy, who
was like a grandmother to me.

My happiest moment was pulling ling cod out of the Pacific Ocean with my
girlfriend and our peaceful Thanksgiving spent together.

My Favorites list for 2016 -

Concert: Chuck Prophet and Garland Jeffries at GAMH
Fight - Karl Frampton vs Leo Santa Cruz
Book - John Connolly - Parker: A Miscellany
TV series - Divorce
Movie - Green Room
Album (that I heard this year) - Kendrick Lamar - To Pimp a Butterfly
SKM show: Beijing
Jesu/SKM show - Williamsburg
Solo show - Sarah Lawrence College

Thanks to Glenn Dicker, Dave Jackson, Chris Connolly, Nathan, Will, Robert, Lori
Miller, John Connolly, Cameron Crowe, Andy Fischer, Geoff Travis, Ruth, Brian,
Ilana, Mitch, Ed, Rosa, Dawn Holiday, The Reid Family, and Nicolas and Katia,
for their friendship, support, and kindness throughout the years.

Happy Holidays to all and a Happy 2017!

"PERHAPS SONGWRITERS NEED TO LOOK BEYOND CLAIMING ONE SIDE OF A BINARY TO PREACH
TO THE CONVERTED. FROM THE 30 SONGS PROJECT, 'THE GREATEST CONVERSATION IN THE
HISTORY OF THE UNIVERSE' BY JESU AND SUN KIL MOON REMAINS STUNNINGLY
TRANSCENDENT, A TWINKLING ELECTRO-ACOUSTIC BALLAD WHICH PAYS RAW TRIBUTE TO
EVERYTHING MARK KOZELEK LOVES ABOUT AMERICA; LOU REED, LAURIE ANDERSON, MUHAMMAD

FIRED / BECAUSE YOU'VE NOT BEEN PAYING ATTENTION AND YOUR APPRENTICESHIP
EXPIRED."

And when I'm walkin' down the Ohio roads

MY CONDOLENCES TO THE FAMILY, FRIENDS AND FANS OF CHRIS SQUIRE. I'VE BEEN A FAN
OF YES SINCE I WAS A KID AND COVERED YES' LONG DISTANCE RUNAROUND, AND LATER
CHRIS SQUIRE'S BEAUTIFUL ONWARD, WHICH I CAN BE SEEN SINGING IN THE NEW FILM
YOUTH BY PAOLO SORRENTINO. CAMERON CROWE AND I ARGUED DURING THE MOVIE SET OF
ALMOST FAMOUS ABOUT HOW HE WANTED ME TO PLAY BASS WITH MY FINGERS "LIKE JOHN
PAUL JONES AND JOHN ENTWISTLE." I WOULD TELL CAMERON "BUT CHRIS SQUIRE PLAYED
WITH A PICK!" CAMERON GOT HIS WAY, BUT MY HEART FILLED WITH JOY AND MELANCHOLY
WHEN I SAW THE PREMIER OF ALMOST FAMOUS AND HEARD I'VE SEEN ALL GOOD PEOPLE FROM
THE YES ALBUM. I'LL NEVER FORGET LISTENING TO THAT ONE OVER AND OVER AGAIN IN AN
OHIO BASEMENT WHERE MY LOVE FOR YES IGNITED. THANK YOU CHRIS SQUIRE FOR THE
BEAUTIFUL MUSIC. I WILL LISTEN TO I'VE SEEN ALL GOOD PEOPLE TONIGHT, OVER AND
OVER. —MARK KOZELEK 6/29/15
