There's nothing like a spot of krumping, locking and popping to beat the end of summer blues.
This irrepressibly zesty promo, directed by documentary filmmaker Nathan Miller and produced by Biscuit Filmworks, is a joyful celebration of slinky street dance moves set to the track's blend of Afrobeat, London jazz and hip hop.
Shot on location in the heatwave-gripped streets of East London and the buzzing Zambian capital, Lusaka, the track celebrates the life-enhancing benefits of music and dance.
The band explains: “London meets Lusaka. Moments of Joy, moments of struggle, but [we’re] united in a spirit that we must carry on. Life must go on. We write our music with a consistent will to push the boundaries of what we can mix jazz with. This incorporates the energies of southern African vibes, mixed with our own style of London jazz. And no better person to voice this beauty than the queen, Sampa the Great.”
Life Goes On is the new single from Ezra Collective’s latest album Where I'm Meant to Be.
