Definitely sad that there will be no more new Sparkelhorse tunes (outside of the already recorded material slated to drop later on this year). RIP Mark, you were an original and a true master of your craft. You'll be missed.

I was afraid we would lose our light. But he could only shuffle... …making these pix for Magnet…was a cool day, just warm enough to create a sweat when rushing…and you can’t rush this man…so I tried to shoot the inbetween moments.

Anyone who hasn't already discovered him would surely honor him in some small way by tracking down his songs and playing them for any and all ears. I will always treasure his timeless music and words. R.I.P., Mark. Sad…sad…sad.
