Mazzy Star is a U.S. band known for their unique blend of folk, country, and psychedelic rock. Formed in 1990 by David Roback and Hope Sandoval, they were part of the Paisley Underground movement based in Santa Monica, California. Originally called Opal, they changed their name to Mazzy Star and released their debut album featuring the re-recorded song "Ghost Highway." Although they never officially split up, the band took a long hiatus from 1997 to 2013. Sadly, Mazzy Star effectively ended after the passing of David Roback in February 2020.

Back In Stock

The Winter of '94 and a year after the release of the sublime So Tonight That I Might See, Mazzy Star find themselves still touring and promoting the album, some of the songs featured here are from that album such as "Into Dust", "Bells Ring" the title track and the hit single "Fade Into You". Whilst songs like "Flowers In December" would turn up on the next album released a whole two years later.

Four of the selections are from the critically acclaimed first album She Hangs Brightly issued in 1990, including the Sylvia Gomez penned "Give You My Lovin"&nbsp;and the obscure German band Slapp Happy cover of "Blue Flower".

Roback and Sandoval are the creative centre of the band, with Sandoval as lyricist and Roback as composer of the majority of the band's material.
