What We Did

In April of 2023, we had the honour of supplying legendary soul artist Gladys Knight and her band with audio and lighting production at Manchester Apollo for long-standing client JBM Music. 

A d&b Audiotechnik V-Series system was deployed to ensure every seat in the iconic theatre received world-class audio quality. A pair of Yamaha CL5 at FOH and monitors, respectively, were brought in as part of the band’s technical rider requirements alongside Sennheiser wireless microphones and in-ear monitoring. 

A flown lighting system and comprehensive floor package were supplied utilising Robe, Ayrton and Chauvet Professional fixtures with an Avolites Arena chosen for control at FOH.
