After 10 consecutive sold-out shows in London, Improvised Jazz and Spoken word night, Groove Verse, is finally coming to Manchesters’ Band on the Wall!

Headlined by local sensation Meduulla, this show combines the crème de la crème of both spoken word and jazz for a night of never-to-be-repeated moments of musical mayhem and lyrical wizardry.

Groove Verse is all about the moment – the one rule is… no rehearsals. Poets can request certain things in real-time from the band, or get up and do their thing and let the band fill in behind them.

A preselected lineup will be gracing the stage, with guest poets fighting in an audience vote for a chance to headline the next show.

Headliner (20 mins): Meduulla

Guest Poets (10 mins): The Thirsty Poet, The Chubby Northerner, Caitlin O’Ryan, Ester Koch + more

Expect appearances from the biggest names in the spoken word, as you’ve never seen before.
