RIP Mark Linkous

Sparklehorse’s Mark Linkous, who tragically took his own life last weekend, was a man who made simple, beautiful music which came from a painful place.

His family released a statement which read “It is with great sadness that we share the news that our dear friend and family member, Mark Linkous, took his own life today. We are thankful for his time with us and will hold him forever in our hearts. May his journey be peaceful, happy and free. There’s a heaven and there’s a star for you.”

We’ll simply leave the last word to the man’s wonderful music.
