Born in Hull in 2001, Morrell's musical DNA is a love letter to the guitar-led anthems of the mid-noughties. Raised on the sharp-witted lyricism of the Arctic Monkeys and the high-energy hooks of The Wombats, his path was set after a transformative trip to Glastonbury in 2009. By 15, he was a fixture of the Hull acoustic circuit, honing his craft at the legendary Adelphi Club. However, it was perhaps his six-year stint behind the decks at the iconic Spiders Nightclub that provided his most vital education: learning how to command a room's energy and rhythm.

 

After relocating to Manchester, Morrell made waves in 2025 with his debut single, 'Better Yesterday,' and the subsequent EP, 'Intoxicated'. The latter was a confident, post-punk-leaning project that established his "Northern roots" sound. But on 'My Dealer (Loves Me),' he leans into the club culture that shaped his youth. For the first time, Morrell introduces synthesizers into the mix, creating a "brighter, club-ready feel" that bridges the gap between a sweaty basement gig and a late-night DJ set.
