Dig My Mood is an album by British singer-songwriter Nick Lowe.[6][7] Produced by Lowe and Neil Brockbank, it was released in the UK in 1998 by Demon Records and elsewhere by Upstart Records.

Critical reception[]

AllMusic wrote that Lowe's songs "are quietly ambitious, exploring new territory lyrically and musically, without leaving his signature style."[2] No Depression wrote that Dig My Mood "resonates with a relaxed, after-hours vibe."[8] The A.V. Club called the album "evidence that the flame that drives Lowe hasn't so much dimmed as intensified into a deeper blue."[9] The Hartford Courant wrote that "the studio musicians are almost irrelevant on this release, given the strength of Lowe's vocals and the magnetic attraction of his songs."[10]
