Hacienda Classical, Ultra Naté, Ce Ce Rogers, Mike Pickering, Graeme Park, y Tom Wainwright

‘Old School’ club anthems with a new classical edge. Great atmosphere amongst a crowd who remembered a classic era of house music. An excellent performance by all involved; orchestra, DJs and vocalists, including many a Manchester music legend.

Although her name is maybe not a household one, Ultra Nate has had much success with her music over the years, with nearly all of her singles charting in the top 10 of Dance Club Party tracks, which is pretty awesome! Her R&B an dance-pop music is totally infectious, and therefore it’s not surprising that the first label she signed to was the giant Warner Bros. Records.
Seeing her live is a showcase of what it is to be talented, grounded in who you are, and have a whole lot of fun with your musical creation. She opened the show with her song Freak On, which was sure to get everyone up on their feet and singing along. It was electric, she was dancing around the stage with such energy and conviction whilst maintaining strong and accurate vocals, which is such a talent to have. She played a solid set for the entire 2 hours, only stopping to chat to the audience, which I must add she did very well. From telling jokes, to introducing her band, she had everyone gripped on her every word. She even let the audience vote on which songs to hear which was very cool.
She’s an incredibly taented performed, and I’m really excited for hwat more she’s got to come. I hope she becomes more mainstream, because her music is so accessible and a lot of fun!
