Wop-a-Din-Din

Cats of Kotor (Dog)

Mark Kozelek performed a live piece named Cats of Kotor for the first time a the Sea Rock Festival in Kotor, Montenegro on Saturday, July 21, 2018. He unveiled the 12-minute song live while at the festival dedicated to some hungry cats he met while spending his time in the seaside town.

“Woke up this morning hungry, walked along the bay of Kotor. There’s a market down there, past the sailboats, down the gravel road,” Kozelek begins. “I went looking for the kittens I saw last night and their protective mother.”
