Spooning Moon: Live review

Throughout, the tone is eerier and somehow more quietly violent than Rollercoaster. According to Lewis-Fitzgerald, despite this signal from her, Kozelek asked her later that day if he could masturbate in front of her, while the two were in his hotel room for what he assured her would be a brief stop before parting ways. Lewis-Fitzgerald shared this story to a friend a month later, the friend confirmed to Pitchfork. Erin Lewis-Fitzgerald and Kozelek had maintained a platonic friendship for years after first meeting at a Red House Painters show in San Francisco in 1995.

They could drift on for more than 10 minutes, but you kind of gave up on keeping track of this kind of thing. The resulting album, Ghosts of the Great Highway, was released in 2003 to critical acclaim. The project's second studio album, Tiny Cities (2005), was composed entirely of Modest Mouse cover songs. The band's follow-up Tiny Cities was released in November 2005 on Kozelek's own label Caldo Verde Records.

When reached by NPR, a representative responded that Kozelek was not available to comment on the allegations. In its piece, Pitchfork reported that it reached out to Kozelek and his representatives over a dozen times over a period of months seeking comment, and that none of its messages were returned. In spring 2019, a 25-year-old Sun Kil Moon fan, who remained anonymous for the article, reached out to Kozelek via email to thank him for his music. The two began an email and text exchange, and in October 2019 agreed to meet up in San Francisco for lunch. The woman’s boyfriend was uneasy about the planned meetup and made a post to Reddit’s Am I the Asshole forum, where users seek advice on whether they’re behaving inappropriately in a situation.

She alleges that Kozelek "invited her and another female musician to his hotel room after a festival in 2014 and acted inappropriately with her as well." No other details were provided. After talking with her at one of Kozelek's shows, she told Pitchfork, he invited her back to his hotel. Connie C., a singer and cabaret performer in San Francisco, had asked Red House Painters to open for her in the early Nineties and had briefly dated Kozelek in the summer of 1992; the two remained friendly, and Connie C. The following April, while on a radio publicity tour in Europe, Kozelek invited Connie C. When she arrived in London, she learned that she would be sharing a room with Kozelek, and she says he became angry when she refused to share a bed with him. As the tour continued, the same situation kept happening, and Connie C.

After fleeing into the cab, she says she considered calling the police, “But I didn’t know how to do that. She texted two friends that night about the incident, both of whom confirmed it to Pitchfork. Golden also claims that she believes the Sun Kil Moon song “Soap for Joyful Hands,” released in 2018, is based on Kozelek’s encounter with Golden.
Once at the hotel, she recounted to the website, Kozelek got undressed and asked her to get into bed with him. According to Golden, when she declined he began masturbating, groped her and attempted to kiss her. Releases other than his own include Alan Sparhawk of Low’s self-titled Retribution Gospel Choir debut album, for which Mark worked as producer. Caldo Verde has also released albums by Jesu, Kath Bloom, and Advance Base. Sun Kil Moon's I Also Want To Die In New Orleans, was released March 1, 2019, on Caldo Verde Records.
Sun Kil Moon's Mark Kozelek announces collab LP with Petra Haden, touring
(Pitchfork reviewed video of Laura onstage singing with Kozelek.) According to Laura, he asked her to have a drink after the show, and said he’d prefer his hotel over the local pub she suggested. She figured she’d be socializing in a group with his bandmates at the lobby bar, she says, but when they arrived, Kozelek brought her to his room alone. In early 1994, they released an EP entitled Shock Me, featuring two cover versions of an Ace Frehley-written KISS song. Founding guitarist Gorden Mack left shortly after the album's release, and he was replaced shortly thereafter by Phil Carney. An accuser named Claire met Kozelek in 2014, while she was attending the Newport Folk Festival in a professional capacity with access to the backstage area. They made plans to hang out at a nearby hotel later, and she agreed to meet him at the pool, hoping the public area would dissuade any sexual advances.
Although he did not name Kozelek — describing him only as his girlfriend’s “favorite musician” — he received a private message from someone who correctly guessed that it was Kozelek. The sender turned out to be Ella, the woman who alleges Kozelek assaulted her in Massachusetts. Another accuser, Laura, recalls Kozelek asking her to have a drink after she sang with him onstage at a Sun Kil Moon show in 2017. Rather than go to the local pub she suggested, she says Kozelek preferred they meet at his hotel, where she assumed they’d be socializing with his bandmates at the lobby bar.
The alleged incident took place in 2017, when she was 24 and Kozelek was 50. She first made contact with Kozelek at a concert the previous year, where she handed him a comic that one of his songs had inspired her to draw, with her email address attached. He thanked her via email and invited her to contact him if she ever wanted to attend a show in the future. When she saw a scheduled performance in her city—she requested that the location be obscured in this article—she took him up on the offer. Less than 10 minutes after they arrived at his room, he went to the bathroom with the door open, and emerged in only a T-shirt and underwear, Laura says.
They span two decades, from Kozelek’s beginnings as a professional musician in the early 1990s with Red House Painters to the peak of Sun Kil Moon’s popularity in the 2010s. Recorded as a three-piece by Kozelek, Koutsos and Stanfield, the album was well received and featured guest vocal appearances from noted indie rock musicians Will Oldham and Ben Gibbard. While Kozelek was beginning work on a solo project, he parted ways with 4AD after a tumultuous relationship, so Songs for a Blue Guitar was eventually released on Island Records subsidiary Supreme Recordings/Polygram in summer 1996. The album featured lengthy guitar jams and cover songs, and was the band's biggest seller in the U.S.[4] By early 1998, their sixth album was completed. However, the band was beginning to dissolve, and major label mergers during the late 1990s would leave the record in limbo; it was not until 2001 that Old Ramon was issued on the Sub Pop label. An accuser named Rasa claims that Kozelek invited her to his hotel room after a show and nonconsensually masturbated in front of her in 2017 when she was 24 and he was 50.
The album was coupled with Mark’s 2001 release White Christmas Live, recorded in Scandinavia. On October 11, 2019, Caldo Verde Records released the collaborative album Mark Kozelek and Petra Haden, Joey Always Smiled. Longtime friend and collaborator Alan Sparhawk interviewed Mark about the album for Talkhouse. Sun Ki Moon Welcome to Sparks, Nevada, was released January 7, 2021. The album is about Mark's life and times throughout the first half of 2020.
Red House Painters was an alternative rock band from San Francisco, CA, United States, formed in 1989 by singer/songwriter Mark Kozelek. The band is described, along with Low and American Music Club, as one of the linchpins of the slowcore movement in alternative rock. Kozelek used this group primarily as a vehicle for his very personal and emotional songs of despair, pain and suffering. In 1994, they released an EP entitled Shock Me and in 1995, the introspective Ocean Beach, which saw Kozelek’s songs becoming more acoustic-based and folk influenced, and featured far less of the lengthy, dreamlike epics of the group’s first two albums. His lyrics also showed a considerable shift in tone, as he increasingly began to write about the power of memory and the significance of geography, a subject that would become an obsession in his subsequent recordings.
Still, she alleges, he was sexually aggressive in ways that violated her consent. Anjuli, who requested that her last name be withheld from this article, had dinner with Kozelek after introducing herself to him at a Sun Kil Moon show in San Francisco in 2014. (Pitchfork reviewed screenshots of texts about the dinner between her and Kozelek.) He offered to walk her back to her apartment, then asked to use her bathroom when she told him she was going inside, she says. He began grabbing at her, she claims, attempting to pull her toward him and place her hands on his body, continuing even as she protested multiple times that she was uncomfortable with the situation and wanted him to stop. When she told him she was calling him a cab, he asked her if he could masturbate on her bed, and she said no, but he got into her bed anyway, she claims.
