Hip hop: Inner City Waves ft. Dámì at Band on the Wall

Band on the Wall’s free monthly hip hop series Inner City Waves has unveiled a seventh crop of emerging talents from Manchester and beyond. Headliner Dámì’s debut EP, Crayons, draws on downtempo beats as an easel for thoughtful lyrics. He’ll be joined on the night by the smooth jazzy soul of South London’s Boadi, while Th3 DOSE and Clemxnt present R&B fuelled floor-fillers as part of a diverse selection of sounds. Past shows’ pedigree is high, having played host to rising names including Sangy, Cul De Sac, Prima and J Chambers.
