Ill Considered is a rising force in the contemporary jazz scene, known for their dynamic and improvisational approach to music. The group emerged from the fertile London jazz underground, bringing together skilled musicians with a shared vision of breaking the mold of pre-composed jazz norms. Armed with an experimental spirit, the band consists of Idris Rahman on saxophone, Leon Brichard on bass, Emre Ramazanoglu on drums, with the occasional inclusion of Satin Singh on percussion. Each member brings a rich tapestry of musical experience, contributing to the group's unique sound and spontaneous creations.
Since their inception, Ill Considered have been prolific in their output, offering a discography that is as ambitious as it is immersive. Their self-titled debut release, "Ill Considered," showcased their innate ability to capture the excitement of live jazz. The momentum continued with sequels like "Ill Considered II (Live at the Crypt)" and "Ill Considered III," each building on the raw energy and intuitive interplay between the musicians. Albums such as "Ill Considered V" and "Ill Considered VI" further solidified their place in the jazz sphere, while themed releases like "An Ill Considered Christmas" display their versatility and whimsical side. Live recordings such as "Ill Considered IV (Live at Total Refreshment Centre)" and "Ill Considered Live in Nantes" offer listeners a front-row experience to their electric performances. With their most recent endeavors, including "Liminal Space" and "Dervish Remixed," Ill Considered continue to defy expectations, blending elements of traditional jazz with avant-garde explorations to critical acclaim and an expanding global following.
