Those who like Slowdive (there seem to be a few on here) will probably know this alt-country band formed by former members, Neil Halstead, Ian McCutcheon and Rachel Goswell after they were dropped by Creation Records. They were joined by keyboardist Alan Forrester and Chapterhouse guitarist, Simon Rowe and picked up by 4AD.

They put out some really impressive music across 5 studio albums. This song is my particular fave because in provided a soundtrack to a period in 2001 in British Columbia, that I spent hanging out with a German girl on the north shore of Vancouver. It’s so evocative for me.

Soon after she (and her sister) went back to Germany, I saw Mojave 3 play at the Starfish Room. I also got to a few of their shows England after I moved there to live.
