Hooky is one of the most important and influential figures to come out of Manchester.  Hooky’s Royal Bass lines not only fired up the Madchester music scene of the 90s, but also lit up and powered one of the most significant cultural changes this country has had the pleasure to witness.

Here is Hooky supporting one of our Music for Cities events at Manchester Cathedral.

Music for Cities is part of our Manchester Urban Collective.  Manchester Urban Collective introduces local youth to a broader taste of the music industry from picking up an instrument to light and sound engineering, stage production and event management.

Music for cities pairs young amateur musicians with their professional counterparts giving the opportunity to perform live in a professionally produced show. You can subscribe and watch all the videos here – Music For Cities Youtube
