In the early 00’s when Johnny Marr produced Haven’s magnificent pair of dream pop platters Between the Senses – (perhaps a nod to the Stones’ Between the Buttons) – and the follow-up All For A Reason, Moz’s former mate was certainly enamored with the melodic pocket plectrum purveyance of bassist Iwan Gronow – whom he drafted into his touring and recording ensemble.

Anchoring Mr. Marr’s muscular post-Smiths bands, Iwan serves the mercurial Mancunian guitar hero quite effectively by way of gritty, pedal pushing Fender P tones and supportive passages with an occasional harmonic foray into the upper register.
