History
Group Members: Skye Edwards / Paul Godfrey / Ross Godfrey / Pete Norris
Although they do not fit within the boundaries of any pre-defined musical genre, Morcheeba are often described as ‘trip-hop’. This term is not something they agree with, so more recently the press have refered to their unique brand of music as a mix of hip-hop, Cajun, rock, funk, blues and pop.

They are now a well-established, critically acclaimed group with two gold-selling albums.  Some of their music has featured on adverts and on soundtracks to television programmes.  Morcheeba have also shown their remixing skills on tracks such as The Dust Junkie's What.Time.Is.It?  The four piece band have also worked on the George Gershwin tribute album Red Hot + Rhapsody, from which the new single Summertime is taken. They have worked with David Byrne and American hip-hop group Reflections Eternal, friends of the band.

Skye (vocals and reproduction) is the voice and face of the group. Of the two Godfrey brothers, Paul (lyrics, navigation, programming, scratching and live drums) is the older. Ross (all guitars, sitar, pedal steel, lap steel, clavinet, Hammond, Fender Rhodes, Wurlitzer piano, drums, EMS synthesiser, MKS 80 and bass) is the main instrumentalist. They make up the live band, but in the studio, Pete Norris is the co-producer.
