In 2002, I saw Mark Kozelek play at Rhino’s in Bloomington, IN. He was one of the closing acts for Bloomingtonfest that year and I can still remember it vividly. That night, something changed inside of me.

With two new live albums out this year, listening to him has really taken me back to that place, that version of myself, 11 years ago, thinking of who I was then and who I am now. Check out one of his two new, amazing live records, 7 Songs Belfast, below:
