Sun Kil Moon is the current project of San Francisco, California-based singer-songwriter Mark Kozelek, best known for his previous band, Red House Painters. Sun Kil Moon sees Kozelek undertake all the writing, composing, singing and guitar playing accompanied by Anthony Koutsos (also an ex-member of RHP) on drums, and Geoff Stanfield on bass.
Sun Kil Moon brought little more than a keyboard and microphone to The Tuning Fork last night, but delivered a spoken word performance filled with almost three hours of subversive comedy and deeply personal human observation.
Audience members ambled to their seats and chattered happily beneath the art deco ceiling of the near sold-out Thornbury Theatre ballroom (19 May), eagerly awaiting the enigmatic Mark Kozelek.
Beyond putting out multiple albums each year and occasionally making waves in the press, Kozelek also appears to enjoy challenging himself on the stage as well.
If you’ve followed the career of Mark Kozelek and his gloomy folk project Sun Kil Moon, you are most likely aware of his mercurial moods and unpredictable performances.
The gig included a special guest, a tribute to a fallen rocker, a previously unheard song and a performance that was as much stand-up comedy as rock and roll.
Tonight is the first time that Sun Kil Moon has ever graced New Zealand shores, so unsurprisingly the highly anticipated show has been sold out for well over a couple of months.
