Award-winning London based band Ezra Collective played to a sold-out Manchester Albert Hall this month, wowing crowds with their unique melodic jazz and funk sound.
Members Dylan Jones and James Mollison opened the show in a memorable fashion by climbing into the historic balcony to engage with their supporters.
Mollison’s melodic saxophone notes filled the iconic Manchester venue as the audience sang along to the band’s hits.
