Manchester big band titans Riot Jazz are recording a live album over the course of two nights at Band on the Wall in early 2017. Their finely-tuned brass sound has entertained audiences across Europe, as regulars at Soundwave Croatia; the perfect setting for their chilled out vibes. With the live recordings planned, the two Band on the Wall shows will add another couple of ‘I was there’ moments to the group’s cataglogue. Expect instrumental funk, soul and hip hop, as well as reimagined pop classics from Bon Jovi to Britney Spears.

Thu 26 Jan (Fri 27 Jan is sold out), Band on the Wall, 25 Swan Street, Northern Quarter, Manchester, M4 5JZ, Tel: 0161 834 1786, 7.30pm, £7-£11, www.bandonthewall.org
