Excuses for Travellers

Mojave 3

Sun-drenched pedal steel and whispered harmonies. A warm, dusty collection of alt-country songs that feel like a quiet conversation in a desert cabin.

Find on Amazon

It’s like a warm hug from a friend who’s also a little bit sad about their ex.

A sun-drenched, gentle melancholia that feels like watching the sunset on a long journey home.

Moments Worth Waiting For
The way the pedal steel sighs like a physical exhale during the bridge of In Love With a View.
The sudden, bright clarity of the acoustic strumming that opens Any Day Will Be Fine.
The patient, seven-minute unfolding of My Life in Art where the piano and guitar seem to drift apart and back together.
