Remastered at Abbey Road, this 2026 reissue on black vinyl of Mojave 3’s debut, Ask Me Tomorrow (1995), features newly updated artwork of photographs by Colin Gray. It was was a refreshingly stripped-down collection that changed little from the original demos. Halstead’s melodic, folk and country-tinged songs drew favourable (if lazy) comparisons to Nick Drake, Cowboy Junkies and Bob Dylan.
Born from the ashes of Slowdive in 1995 by former members Neil Halstead and Rachel Goswell, and 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.
