Morcheeba have announced a new album.
'Blackest Blue', their 10th studio LP, is due for release on May 14. The follow-up to 2018's 'Blaze Away' features 10 tracks, and includes contributions from Duke Garwood (well known for his work with Mark Lanegan, among others) and Brad Barr (The Slip, The Barr Brothers).
The record was largely written during downtime in 2020 due to the coronavirus pandemic lockdown. The band's multi-instrumentalist Ross Godfrey said: "[It gave us] time to write songs and really get to hone them."
"There weren't so many pressures so we could really take our time getting the songs right," added vocalist Skye Edwards.
