Upcoming free NY solo performance
While in town doing promo stuff for the May release of ‘The Invisible Man,’ Mark Eitzel will also be doing a special acoustic performance at 7pm, Monday April 16 at the Housing Works Used Book Cafe. (126 Crosby Street in NYC, Btwn Houston and Prince, 1 block east of Broadway)

Housing Works is a non-profit organization that provides housing, health care, job training, advocacy, and many other services for homeless New Yorkers living with HIV and AIDS. All proceeds from book and food sales at the Cafe benefit Housing Works. The gig itself is free, but if you’d like to make a donation or purchase something, that would be great.

Mark Eitzel — We can see right through him
The amazing new album from Mark Eitzel is officially titled ‘The Invisible Man.’ Look for a European single of “Proclaim Your Joy” preceding the full-length masterpiece, and please be advised that Mark will be playing with Stephen Malkmus, Mogwai and The Soft Boys at Matador’s SXSW event, affectionately dubbed “We Put The Brie In Inebriate,” at the Austin Music Hall on March 17.

Mark Eitzel returns to public prominence (!!)
Titles, dates and revealing photography will have to wait for a future update, but we can announce with undisguised glee that Mark Eitzel will be releasing a brand new studio recording on Matador in the spring of 2001. We can also confirm after weeks of denials, Mr. Eitzel will be appearing on Matador’s massive SXSW live event, taking place on March 17 (Austin Music Hall), appearing alongside Stephen Malkmus, Mogwai and the reunited Soft Boys. He’ll also be playing in London on March 1 alongside The Wisdom Of Harry at London’s Union Chapel, as part of Rough Trade’s 25th Anniversary concert series.
