Morcheeba

Escape The Chaos

In 1994, the band Morcheeba was formed in London when two brothers Ross and Paul Godfrey partnered with vocalist Skye Edwards. From the beginning, their sound was a blend of trip-hop, downtempo and electronic elements with a strong focus on creating atmospheric sounds. Morcheeba had some big hits early on including The Sea (1998 -  Big Calm album), World Looking In and Rome Wasn’t Built In A Day (2000 - Fragments of Freedom album). 

Over the last twenty-five years, Morcheeba have released ten studio albums. In 2003, Skye left the band taking a five year hiatus, leaving the two brothers to continue producing music with a number of singers before rejoining again in 2009. In 2014, Paul decided to quit the band. The remaining duo formed Skye & Ross for a short time before returning to record under their original name Morcheeba in 2018.

This latest album is Mocheeba’s 11th album and the third without Paul Godfrey. Some critics have hailed ‘‘Escape the Chaos’ to be the band’s best LP since the turn of the century. After spending two years producing the album, the twelve tracks include nuanced timely lyrics with blend of quality electronic textures, and of course Skye’s bewitching vocals. Ross has stated "This whole record is a process of trying to reconnect with what really matters, whether it's what’s in your heart or with the world, putting your feet on grass and feeling the earth beneath you". We all need to listen to a piece of that!

Escape The Chaos is produced by independent record label 100% Records
