Ilya is a duo from Bristol, England. The band consists of Joanna Swan and Nick Pullin. The band released their debut album They Died For Beauty in 2004, receiving a massive critical acclaim. In 2006 Somerset was released. On one hand the band is often compared to Zero 7 and other post-2000 downtempo acts, on the other hand Ilya is considered as continuing the trip-hop tradition originated in Bristol in the 1990's.

  • Ilya is a duo from Bristol, England. The band consists of Joanna Swan and Nick Pullin. The band released their debut album They Died For Beauty in 2004, receiving a massive critical acclaim. In 2006 Somerset was released. On one hand the band is often compared to Zero 7 and other post-2000 downtempo acts, on the other hand Ilya is considered as continuing the trip-hop tradition originated in Bristol in the 1990's. While their first album probably fitted better in the Zero 7-esque downtempo category, their recent album is a lot more organic and rowdier than the first.
