The band was founded by Rohan Heath (born 19 July 1964). He learned to play classical piano as a child before switching to the electric piano. He had previous experience with groups such as Yargo and Manchester DJ A Guy Called Gerald. After a tour of Japan supporting the Happy Mondays, he left the band A Guy Called Gerald to work with the rave band Together. Heath went on to work with Jamaican reggae artist Eek-A-Mouse before concentrating on his new project, Urban Cookie Collective. He was the keyboardist, writer, and producer of their music. Heath wrote and produced their first hits, "The Key the Secret" and "Feels Like Heaven". He brought in vocalist Diane Charlemagne for many of the group's early tracks. She eventually co-wrote some of the songs and became a major part of the band. Band members include Simon Bentall, Peter Samson, Johnny Jay, Mark Hadfield and Neil Claxton (later of Mint Royale) and Danielle Barnett. The band caused some controversy in 1996 by recording a cover version of the Oasis song "Champagne Supernova". Noel Gallagher, one of the founding members of Oasis, claimed that he had not given permission and legal action stopped the track from being given a full release. 
 The band remains active, and tours all over the world fronted by lead singer Danielle Barnett who has been with Urban Cookie Collective for more than 20 years. 
 In 2014, Charlemagne was diagnosed with kidney cancer. She sadly died of the disease on 28 October 2015, aged 51.
