The band initially existed as a trio consisting of Halstead, Goswell, and McCutcheon (hence the "3" in their name). After Slowdive were dropped by Creation Records, the trio decided to change musical direction to a country rock or folk music style, and were signed by 4AD. Rowe (formerly of Chapterhouse) and Forrester joined shortly after the release of their first album.
Both Halstead (the main songwriter for the band) and Goswell have released solo albums, also for 4AD. McCutcheon founded and is currently playing with his band called The Loose Salute who are signed to Heavenly Records.
The band went on hiatus in 2008, but returned to playing live gigs in 2011, including a handful of concerts supporting Band of Horses.
With Slowdive returning to live performances in 2014, Mojave 3 has been put on indefinite hiatus.
Any Day Will Be Fine
Mojave 3 Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
And the hi-lights in your hair
They turn me on
And if you wanna go
Just go we'll run away
'Cause I don't mind
Anyway will be fine
Still some distance to run
We keep movin' on
You say it's wrong
But it feels so right to me
You know it's true
And all these things
Are just a state of mind
You know it's true
Any day will be fine
Anyway will be fine
Still some distance to run
We keep movin' on
Any day will be fine
Anyway will be fine
Still some distance to run
We keep movin' on
The opening lines of "Any Day Will be Fine" by Mojave 3 establish a sense of physical and emotional attraction between the singer and the person they are addressing. They express a fondness for the sun and "hi-lights" in the person's hair. These details may suggest that the relationship is new or still in a phase of discovery. The singer's interest in the visual appearance of the other person, coupled with their description of being turned on, creates a charged and sensual atmosphere.
The song then moves into a discussion of the future of this relationship. The singer suggests that they are open to the idea of the other person leaving or running away, indicating a willingness to take risks and embrace uncertainty. The repeated refrain of "Any day will be fine / Anyway will be fine" suggests a focus on the present moment rather than worrying about what the future holds. The lyrics acknowledge that there is "still some distance to run," but the singer is committed to moving forward regardless.
Despite potential obstacles, the singer believes that their connection is worth pursuing. They acknowledge that others may view their relationship as "wrong," but they feel that it is "right" for them personally. The phrase "all these things / Are just a state of mind" suggests that the singer is aware of the subjectivity of their feelings and experiences, but that they trust their own judgment.
Overall, "Any Day Will Be Fine" conveys a sense of urgency and desire as well as a willingness to take risks and navigate the uncertain terrain of a new relationship.

I love the sun
I adore the warmth of the sun
And the hi-lights in your hair
Plus, I love the hi-lights on your hair
They turn me on
It's such a turn-on to see them
And if you wanna go
If you feel like going away
Just go we'll run away
Let's just leave and run away together
'Cause I don't mind
I'm okay with that
Any day will be fine
We can do it any day, it doesn't matter
Anyway will be fine
In any case, it'll be okay
Still some distance to run
We still have some way to go
We keep movin' on
But we'll keep moving forward
You say it's wrong
You say this isn't right
But it feels so right to me
But it feels absolutely perfect to me
You know it's true
And you know that's the truth
And all these things
All of this
Are just a state of mind
Are just figments of our imagination
You know it's true
You know that's the truth
Any day will be fine
We can do it any day, it doesn't matter
Anyway will be fine
In any case, it'll be okay
Still some distance to run
We still have some way to go
We keep movin' on
But we'll keep moving forward
Any day will be fine
We can do it any day
Anyway will be fine
In any case
Still some distance to run
We still have some way to go
We keep movin' on
But we'll keep moving forward

Pygmalion had pushed Slowdive to the edge. Mojave 3 was a response. Americana from the 🇬🇧 !
