Ezra Collective formed in London in 2012 through friendships developed at Tomorrow’s Warriors, the youth music organization that has played a central role in Britain’s contemporary jazz movement. The group’s established lineup features drummer Femi Koleoso, bassist TJ Koleoso, keyboardist Joe Armon-Jones, saxophonist James Mollison, and trumpeter Ife Ogunjobi. Together, they connect jazz improvisation with Afrobeat, reggae, hip-hop, grime, salsa, gospel, and the communal energy of dance music.

The band’s first widely available recording, “May the Funk Be with You,” appeared in 2013. The five-track Chapter 7 EP followed in 2016 with “Enter the Jungle,” “Chasing the Square,” “Colonial Mentality,” and collaborations with Ty and Zara McFarlane. Those recordings established the rhythmic drive and open, celebratory performance style that would remain at the heart of the group’s work.

Ezra Collective released Juan Pablo: The Philosopher in 2018. Recorded at Abbey Road and mixed with contributions from Floating Points and Matt Mysko, the seven-track EP included “Juan Pablo,” “The Philosopher,” “People in Trouble,” and “Space Is the Place.” Nubya Garcia and Theon Cross also appeared on the project, reinforcing the close connections among musicians in London’s jazz community.

The group’s first full-length album, You Can’t Steal My Joy, arrived in 2019. Jorja Smith, Loyle Carner, and KOKOROKO joined the band on a record that moved easily between reflective passages and dance-floor momentum. “Quest for Coin,” “Reason in Disguise,” “What Am I to Do?,” “São Paulo,” “Shakara,” and the title track helped bring Ezra Collective to a larger international audience.

After the 2020 single pairing “Dark Side Riddim” and “Samuel L. Riddim,” Ezra Collective released Where I’m Meant To Be in 2022. The album featured Sampa the Great, Kojey Radical, Emeli Sandé, Nao, and spoken contributions from Steve McQueen and TJ Koleoso. It won the 2023 Mercury Prize, making Ezra Collective the first jazz act to receive the award.

The group transformed material from that album on Where I’m Meant To Be (Remixes) before releasing Dance, No One’s Watching in 2024. Built as a journey through a night of movement and connection, the 19-track album featured Yazmin Lacey, Olivia Dean, M.anifest, and Moonchild Sanelly. Ezra Collective’s growing reach continued in 2025 when the band won the BRIT Award for Group of the Year.

The year 2025 also brought “Body Language” with Sasha Keable, an Ezra Collective remix of “Beto’s Horns,” a new remix of “God Gave Me Feet for Dancing,” and the three-track holiday release Joy To The World. These recordings extended the band’s music into salsa, house, seasonal standards, and large-scale collaborations without separating it from the improvisational character of the core quintet.
