Ezra Collective

Ezra Collective are a British jazz quintet from London whose members met at the Tomorrow's Warriors youth programme and began playing together in the 2010s. They blend Afrobeat, calypso, reggae, hip-hop, soul and jazz into energetic instrumental music, often with guest vocalists. Their album "Where I'm Meant to Be" (2022) won the Mercury Prize; "Dance, No One's Watching" followed in 2024. Live sets push groove-heavy jazz meant for dancing as much as listening.
