It is important that I publicly and unconditionally deny that I engaged in the inappropriate and disturbing incidents falsely depicted in the media. While I support the important work of addressing legitimate claims of sexual misconduct, I reject the false allegations and innuendo in the recent press.



I have retained the legal counsel of Lavely & Singer to investigate and to pursue as necessary any claims against anyone participating to defame me in the media.

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

Hotel 4



(Partison Hotel/Caldo Verde Records) Release date - May 1, 2018

LIMITED EDITION BOOK



A collaborative publication including Iris Smyles, Nona Fernández, Bill Callahan, and Mark Kozelek



ORDER HERE »



Founded around eighteen months ago—and based between London, Belgium and New York—Hotel is a publication, both online and in print, run by a volunteer editorial collective. As a magazine dedicated to new approaches to fiction, non-fiction and poetry, Hotel establishes a foundation for experimental reflection on literature’s status as “art” and cultural mediator.



Collaborators are offered total freedom to present work as they see fit rather than as within the remit of editorial mandate or curatorial consensus. Our masthead, to such an end, is simple: the hotel is our metaphor for the publication, writers come and take a room—do with it what they will—and, for the duration of their stay, the hotel is defined by its inhabitants, defined by the work that takes temporary residence therein. We look for editorial accidents in Hotel, building each issue around the ways in which each of the inhabitants speaks to their various neighbors, and let the work speak for itself.



Hotel #4, our “blue” Hotel, numbers a series of poetic fragments—at turns essayistic and anecdotal—alongside short stories, prose-poems, and conversations that shift in focus from the bible to bible-burning—from the bedroom to bathroom—from the cinema to the shores of Lake Tahoe. Each piece a variation on some kind of blue, each piece harboring some kind of blue intimation.

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!

The List/UK/30 Days Project



"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 Ali, the raw multiculturalism of New York. 'If you don't like this song or what I have to say,' he notes, in language Trump might appreciate, 'then fuck off and listen to "bye bye Miss American Pie".' His conclusion, with a ring of truth we should all acknowledge, embraces turbulent reality over self-affirming comfort: 'if you think you took no part in (Trump's) place in this world, then you're fired / because you've not been paying attention and your apprenticeship expired."

Thank You to Mark Kozelek:





Dear Publicist



I hope that you are well. Not sure that I'm emailing the right person, but last night Mark sang Micheline after I'd shouted it out at the Newcastle gig. I just wanted to say a huge thank you, Benji is one of my favourite all time albums; listened to it endlessly over the past few years. It was an amazing gig, definitely more than "champion"! Please thank Mark for a thought- provoking, emotional, inspiring escape from life!



Many thanks



Louise

Muhammad Ali. People always ask me "if there is a person you could meet, who you've never met before, who would it be?" The answer was always "Muhammad Ali." You were, and will always be, the greatest. Bowie inspired me to sing, Jimmy Page inspired me to play guitar, and you inspired me to be me.

John Connolly - A Time of Torment



April 7 is the publication date for the next Charlie Parker novel, A TIME OF TORMENT , in the UK and Ireland. As usual, Irish readers may see the book in stores a few days before April 7, possibly as early as the end of March. American readers will get it on August 2.



The book is available for pre-order, and John Connolly will be making bookstore appearances in the UK. They are still finalizing tour details — but once again, the fine folks at Waterstones will be selling a signed edition that comes with a CD. The CD, The Deep Woods, includes tracks from Mark Kozelek, Low, Susanne Sundfør, This Mortal Coil, and more.

Onward





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
