Marvin and Tamara were a duo from the United Kingdom who were active from 1999 to 2000. Their first single, "Groove Machine", peaked at #11 in the UK Singles Chart in August 1999.[1] The track was played on UK radio stations, and became one of the more popular UK summer songs of 1999. However, their success was short-lived when in January 2000, their second single, "North, South, East, West", only reached #38.[1] They were subsequently dropped by their record label, Epic.

Marvin and Tamara were known for supporting Steps on their 'The Next Step Live' tour.
