Hejira - Prayer Before Birth
Too often Herija seem a little too lofty, and unsure of who their crowd is: jamming philosophy students, or people who think Meanwhile Back In Communist Russia weren’t cryptic enough.»

Hejira - a band name that may or may not pay homage to the 1976 Joni Mitchell folk / jazz fusion album of the same title - are a London quartet whose sprawling global heritage extends to Chile, Hungary, Ethiopia and Germany. Hejira's debut album, 'Prayer Before Birth' sounds a lot like former Accidental label mates The Invisible, it also has elements of Massive Attack at their most mellow and Connan Mockasin's spindly, spooked guitars.
