Americana band Mohave takes its inspiration from the tiny town of Nowhere, Nevada, a former gold mining town with a population of 222. Legend has it that back in 1962 at the old El Rey Drive In Theater, Hippie, Dark and E-Z, three employees of the place, were called to the front to play music when the film projector broke one night. They soon became a regular part of each evening. In 1999, lead vocalist/Appalachian mountain dulcimerist Bing Futch was given the inspiration for the band while driving through the southwestern desert and Mohave was born.
