Join us on an incredible journey through global sounds as Manchester-based, South African DJ SNO brings her masterclass in rhythm to GRUB Stretford. Rooted in her childhood in Bophelong, South Africa where Sunday record sessions with her uncle spanned jazz, disco, and R&B icons like Teddy Pendergrass and Miriam Makeba alongside 90s house and hip hop, SNO has evolved into one of the UK's finest selectors of African and diasporic music. Discovering that the roots of all music lead back to Africa, her sets are driven by an irresistible groove, seamlessly weaving in Ghanaian highlife, Congolese soukous, and global club rhythms. After moving to Manchester in 2007, a sudden loss of her uncle's record collection sparked her own relentless vinyl digging obsession at Piccadilly Records. From a spontaneous, double-booked debut at Soup Kitchen in 2015 to residencies at Reform Radio, The Deaf Institute, and a partnership with Banana Hill, as well as numerous festival appearances both in the UK and around the world SNO is a vital force in Manchester nightlife. Don’t miss this electrifying night celebrating deep grooves, cultural connection, and hard-to-find beats from across the African continent and beyond!
