Skye Edwards (born 1974 as Shirley Klarisse Yonavive Edwards) is a British singer, born in south east London. Until 2003, she was the lead singer of the band Morcheeba. Edwards decided to shorten her name to Skye by taking the first letter of each of her names and putting them together. She has also sung on two charity collaborations, Perfect Day 1997, in aid of BBC Children in Need and Band Aid 20, in 2004, in aid of famine relief in Sudan, Africa. Edwards has two children, a son and a daughter.

Upon leaving Morcheeba, Edwards was subsequently replaced by Daisy Martey (formerly of Noonday Underground) in the vocalist spot of the band. Edwards signed to Atlantic Records UK, and put out a solo album, Mind How You Go released in February 2006.
