Good Morning! Today's song is Blood Like Lemonade by Morcheeba.
Morcheeba is an English band active since 1995 with current members in Skye Edwards and Ross Godfrey, and past members include Paul Godfrey and Daisy Martey. The group started with the Godfrey brothers and Edwards who were signed and released an EP in 1995. Their debut album came out the next year, followed by a North American and European tour. Their next album came out in 1998, sounding more mainstream, before releasing their third album in 2000 and another in 2002. The group split in 2003, and it sounds like all parties were kind of relieved with that decision. The brothers got back together a year later, hiring Martey and releasing an album before getting rid of her halfway through their tour, leading to a legal battle and years of silence from the group. The brothers released a sixth album in 2008 with hired singers to perform. During that whole time period, Edwards had continued as a solo act, but in 2010 the boys convinced her to come back. This song is from their seventh album of the same name released in 2010, which they toured for, then released another album in 2013. In 2014 Paul decided to leave the group, but after an argument about how much his piece of the ownership was worth, the other two released their new material in 2016 under the group name Skye & Ross instead of the band name. They have since released two more albums as Morcheeba in 2018 and 2021 respectively, but I'm not sure what happened with the ownership for them to do that. I would assume though that it was resolved if they're still going strong as this band. Anyway, I hope you enjoy!
Peace.
