Morcheeba
Genre-mashing Morcheeba take on Meltdown with the band’s signature fusion of downbeat, chill, electro-pop and soul music.
Morcheeba’s global reach is impressive, taking them to every corner of the world. Their signature chilled electronic/organic sound has been border-hopping ever since the London-based band emerged as a household name.
Showcasing songs from their new album Blackest Blue and more, the band’s set features lustrous new songs touching on disintegrating familial and romantic relationships, love and kinship, the world around and the consolations of cannabis.
Ultimately, ‘Blackest Blue is about finding a way through the darkest of times and emerging the other side changed but intact,’ say the duo, summing up their most exciting project to date.
Morcheeba is joined by Welsh rock band Cardinal Black, originally formed in 2010, whose members reconnected during the pandemic after a hiatus of over a decade pursuing solo paths. With albums that have since taken top spots on the iTunes and Amazon Album Charts, the ‘oldest new band in the world’ features exceptional vocals from singer Tom Hollister, and riffs from acclaimed guitarist Chris Buck.
