Amon Ra Collective

Amon Ra Collective

Leeds-based avant garde jazz band Amon Ra Collective are a large community of over 20 members, appearing at live shows around the city for the past 2 years in different combinations of between 2-15 people. Led by trumpeter Samuel Ehret-Pickett, they play an exciting fusion of energetic solos, pulsating rhythms, electronic noise, free improvisation and Butch Morris' Conduction method. Inspired by the music of Miles Davis’ electric jazz fusion, John Coltrane’s free jazz and the spiritual world music of Don Cherry, they bring together jazz, rock, world music, afrobeat, drum & bass and cosmic funk into one big Amon Ra musical melting pot.
