Speaking about the single, Edwards said the song is a reflection on her three decades in Morcheeba and the ways in which her personal and professional life have become intertwined: “In a way, it’s a homage to the thirty years of being in Morcheeba, which is 60% of my existence.”

Escape the Chaos was recorded in part during sessions in Dublin, where the band was joined by family members who also perform with them live. Edwards’ son Jaega contributed drums, and her husband Steve Gordon played bass on several tracks.

The band plans to announce tour dates in support of Escape the Chaos in the coming months and you can pre-order the album here.
