Morcheeba, Hooverphonic, maybe earlier Goldfrapp.
This list and massive attack pretty much covers what I would call close proximity (that I'm aware of). Of course there's a myriad of trip hop sub genres more or less close to this subset, but it can veer off quite far.
Morcheeba, definitely. Start with "Who can you trust?" and make your way through the discography. It evolves in style, but I think you'll find a few you'll like.
Assume for a second that I listen to it not because it is trip hop, but because of Beth Gibbons' vocals. Would you change that recommendation?
In that case maybe you'd enjoy some female indie singers? Try Big Thief, This is the Kit, St South, Phoebe Bridgers.
I'd still say morcheeba fits the bill though. Bit more left field but, Dido?
If you’re in the mood for something not trip hop but with a similar vocal style you might enjoy Lamb - later stuff is probably most similar, earlier stuff is a bit more esoteric.
Oh I forgot about Lamb!
Trying the album: The Secret of Letting Go. So far I like it! Thanks for the rec!
No, they all have female vocals. Early Goldfrapp is more synth dance/pop than trip hop.
