About this episode
In today’s podcast we meet the man pulling the bass strings with UK breakthrough act the Ezra Collective.
One of the few left-handed bassists around today, TJ Koleoso is currently making a name for himself with the award-winning Ezra Collective. Sonically inspired by the likes of Flea, Bobby Watson and Fela Kuti’s Nweke Atifoh, the basic template is jazz, but there are so many elements bubbling under the surface that it’s impossible to slap any single genre tag onto TJ’s instinctive bass playing. Having recently recorded their second EP at London’s Abbey Road Studios, The Ezra Collective have found a sound to redefine a genre.
