Mark Linkous, tragic cult figure and driving force behind the group Sparklehorse, led a dramatic life with many ups and downs, which is reflected in his music. He was a modest man, a real gentleman, but he struggled with addiction and severe depression, which eventually drove him to suicide. Musically he balanced between country, psychedelic pop and punk and felt like no other, a balance between sweet nostalgia and brutal noise. Angela Faye Martin, a friend of Linkous, is our guide in this portrait of a brilliant and diverse musician who comes to life in the conversations including Jason Lytle (Grandaddy), John Parish, Adam Bryanbaum Wiltzie (Stars of the Lid) and Jonathan Donahue (Mercury Rev).
