GENA feat. Liv.e & Karriem Riggins is a stellar live music experience coming to Manchester on Friday 28 August 2026, showcasing some seriously talented artists in an intimate setting. Liv.e brings her distinctive experimental R&B vibes while Karriem Riggins, the celebrated Detroit producer and drummer, adds his jazz-influenced production prowess to the bill. It's the kind of forward-thinking musical lineup that Manchester audiences crave, blending soul, hip-hop and live instrumentation into something genuinely special.
Band On The Wall in the Northern Quarter is one of Manchester's most respected independent music venues, known for championing innovative artists and creating an authentic, no-nonsense atmosphere. The venue's stripped-back aesthetic and quality sound system make it the perfect spot for this calibre of performance, and you're right in the heart of the city's creative hub with tons of bars and restaurants nearby. The Northern Quarter itself has become Manchester's cultural epicentre, packed with independent shops, galleries and street art.
Doors open at 19:00 on the night, and with a 10+ age restriction, this is genuinely inclusive for younger music fans. Tickets are £21.50, representing genuine value for a night of this quality. Head to Band On The Wall's website to book in advance—these intimate shows sell out quickly, and you won't want to miss it.
