Morcheeba

English electronic band

Morcheeba are an English electronic band formed in the mid-1990s with founding members brothers Paul and Ross Godfrey who later recruited vocalist Skye Edwards. They mix influences from trip hop, rock, folk rock and downtempo, and have produced eleven regular studio albums since 1995, two of which reached the UK top ten.

Edwards left the band in 2003, after which the brothers used a number of guest singers before she rejoined in 2010. They recruit additional members for their live performances and have toured internationally.

Paul Godfrey distanced himself from the band in 2014. Edwards and Ross Godfrey later formed Skye & Ross and released a self-titled album in September 2016.

Band name

The name "Morcheeba" comes from the initials "MOR" ("middle of the road") as a joke and needing more "cheeba", a slang term used by Paul's idol Schoolly D for cannabis.
