Ezra Collective’s new era, a venture in discovered maturity and raised stakes, will be defined by the anticipated second album. Following their summer-ready single Victory Dance in June, Ezra Collective officially announces their forthcoming album Where I'm Meant To Be, out November 4th on Partisan Records. Alongside the announcement, the band also shares the project's lead track Life Goes On, featuring Sampa The Great as well as a nod to the 1972 Fela Kuti record Shakara Oloje. The accompanying music video is directed by Nathan Miller and shot on location in London and Lusaka. 'Where I’m Meant To Be' is a thumping celebration of life, an affirming elevation in the Ezra Collective’s winding hybrid sound and refined collective character. The songs marry cool confidence with bright energy. Full of call-and-response conversations between their ensemble parts, a natural product of years improvising together on-stage, the album - which also features Sampa The Great, Kojey Radical, Emile Sandé, Steve McQueen, and Nao - will light up sweaty dance floors and soundtrack dinner parties in equal measure. |
