    Morgan Daniel Nicholls (born 18 March 1971) is an English musician, member of English pop band Senseless Things and best known for performing with Muse, Gorillaz, The Streets and Lily Allen. He has released one solo album under the mononym Morgan.

    Career[edit]

    Nicholls began his career with Senseless Things,[1] with whom he released four studio albums between 1989 and 1995. He was subsequently involved with Vent 414 until 1997. In 2002, Morgan was involved as a producer on QueenAdreena's Drink Me. In August 2004, he temporarily joined the alternative rock band Muse at the V Festival, filling in for bassist Christopher Wolstenholme who had broken his wrist playing football.[2]

    In 2004, Morgan Nicholls joined Damon Albarn to play bass guitar on the 2005 Gorillaz album Demon Days. Morgan knew the band from his friendship with Gorillaz co-creator Jamie Hewlett. In 2005 and 2006 he joined the Gorillaz live band for a live set of show for Demon Days, playing two 5 night residencies at the Manchester Opera HouseinManchester and the Apollo TheaterinHarlem, New York.[citation needed]

    In 2006, Muse recruited Nicholls as a touring member on keys, percussion and guitar; he performed with them until 2022, when he revealed on Twitter he would not be joining the band for the Will of the People Tour that year. He was replaced by Dan Lancaster.[3]

    Nicholls was the tour director and bassist for Lily Allen on the first half of her 2009 world tour.[4]

    In late 2018, Nicholls, Cass Browne, Ade Emsley and Des Murphy, formed a psychedelic-punk band, Circle 60. They released their first EP, SawnOff ShotGold, in 2019.[citation needed]
