LP - Mojave 3 - Ask Me Tomorrow

1LP - remastered

Born from the ashes of Slowdive in 1995 by former members Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell along with newly acquired drummer Ian McCutcheon, Mojave 3 began by recording six sparse, acoustic, vocally-driven tracks that stripped away the swirling guitar distortion that had once cloaked their singing in a veil of mystery, leaving Neil and Rachel's vocal harmonies to stand fully exposed.

The six-track demo sufficiently impressed 4AD label head Ivo Watts-Russell and Mojave 3 were signed to a five-album deal, with the original demos becoming the foundation of debut album and fan favourite, "Ask Me Tomorrow". Halstead's melodic, folk- and country-tinged songs drew favourable (if lazy) comparisons to Nick Drake, Cowboy Junkies, and Bob Dylan.
