Vocalist and songwriter Nicola Hitchcock and Saul Freeman Ex-thieves joined forces in the mid-nineties to form Mandalay, signed to V2 records and released three albums "empathy", "instinct" and "solace" (the latter a compilation released exclusively in the US in spring 2001). Incorporating guest musicians Jon Hassell and Steve Jansen (Japan), Freeman's intimate, pristine production and Hitchcock's heartbreaking vocal performances earned the duo props throughout the latter part of the decade in their native U.K., specifically with the albums Empathy and Instinct.
