Morcheeba

Morcheeba, a British electronic and trip hop band, plays Leeds University Stylus in West Yorkshire, with the British singer-songwriter Alex Cornish also on the bill. The band's catalogue spans several decades.

Morcheeba is a British band formed in London in 1995, playing electronic music and trip hop. Signed to Discovery Records, it released its first album, Who Can You Trust?, in 1996. The group began when Ross Godfrey, a multi-instrumentalist from Kent who was 18 at the time, met Skye at a South London party. Skye sang and wrote songs, and Godfrey invited Skye to his flat share in Dalston. The partnership has since produced ten studio albums, alongside solo projects and film soundtracks, and the line-up has changed over the years.

The band's recent history includes an invitation from Chaka Khan to headline the Meltdown Festival at the Southbank in London. Morcheeba has been followed by several generations of listeners, and its records remain part of the trip hop canon.

Alex Cornish is a British singer-songwriter who plays alternative rock and began their career in 2008 with the label EMI. Leeds University Stylus hosts concerts and shows in West Yorkshire, and this evening brings the two acts to the venue.
