Making Waves ft. John Ainsworth at Trof NQ

Northern Quarter hipster den Trof brings a night of live music curated by Manchester band Glass Tides (formerly Sam Haine & The Bloodflames). Taking over the first floor every second Thursday of the month Glass Tides will be showcasing the best in new acts as well as more established performers. November sees John Ainsworth (pictured) headline the event, a prolific performer and one of the most talented guitarists and vocalists in Manchester, who has had a busy few years of being handpicked to support the likes of Badly Drawn Boy and The Charlatans. Support comes from the fingerpicking Shaun Rimmer and acoustic soul-pop act Ricky Fleming. A free night, giving you the best of Manchester’s music scene.
