Blues Events in Manchester

Blues is the root of almost everything — rock, soul, jazz, and hip-hop all trace back here. Built on 12-bar structures, bent guitar notes, and emotional vocal delivery, the blues is simple in form but infinite in expression. Live blues nights are about feel, groove, and musicians feeding off each other.
