Mojave 3 – Out Of Tune (2026 Remaster)

Mojave 3 – Out Of Tune (2026 Remaster) returns to vinyl as part of the long-awaited 4AD reissue series, newly remastered at Abbey Road. Originally released in 1998, the album found Mojave 3 expanding from the hushed intimacy of Ask Me Tomorrow into a fuller, warmer and more confident band sound.

By this point Simon Rowe and Alan Forrester had joined the core group, helping Mojave 3 develop into a richer ensemble. Written and developed in a farmhouse in Cornwall before being recorded with producer Tony Doogan, Out Of Tune channels the communal spirit of classic folk-rock and Americana while keeping the band's unmistakable sense of atmosphere. Songs such as "Who Do You Love", "Some Kinda Angel", "All Your Tears" and "To Whom Should I Write" showcase Neil Halstead's increasingly refined songwriting and the group's gift for understated emotional detail.

More polished and expansive than the debut, the album brings together pedal steel, brass, piano, gentle country influences and beautifully measured alternative rock arrangements. It is a bright yet bittersweet record that connects the dots between Neil Young, Gram Parsons, Bob Dylan, Cowboy Junkies and the dreamier edges of the 4AD catalogue.

For listeners who love melodic, melancholic and quietly powerful guitar music, Out Of Tune remains one of Mojave 3's essential albums. This 2026 remastered LP edition restores a key release from the band's catalogue to vinyl.
