Ezra Collective

"Ezra Collective is the Mercury Prize award-winning, London-based band born out of Tomorrows Warriors UK organisation for jazz music. The unique blend of young instrumentalists with differing influences means Ezra Collective has a unique sound which is a collection of their inspirations in music. This includes influences ranging from Afro Beat, Reggae, Jazz and Hip Hop, fused together with a London touch to create the Ezra Collective sound."

The band features James Mollison - saxophone , Dylan Jones - trumpet, Joe Armon Jones - piano, TJ Koleoso - bass and Femi Koleoso - drums.

They released their debut EP, "Chapter 7" in 2016, followed by the 2017 EP, "Juan Pablo: The Philosopher". They released their debut album, "You Can't Steal My Joy" in 2019, followed by 2022's "Where I'm Meant to Be".

The band won a 2022 MOBO in the "Best Jazz Act" category and the 2023 Mercury Prize for the album, "Where I'm Meant To Be".
