Manchester promoters Now Wave continue to feed the city's thriving live music scene by plugging its flagship venues with on-the-pulse acts.

In fact we're not sure the guys even take a day off; another huge run of artists are already penned in for the Manchester brand in February.  

Scoping some of our favourites from across the month, unmissable post-punkers Savages unfurl their forthcoming album Adore Life at the Albert Hall to mark a serious special event.  

Floating Points heads a spectacle for all electronic heads by bringing his live show to the Ritz. It'll offer the first chance to hear the musician's recent album Eleania outside of London. 

Manchester band MONEY also play a live set at the Ritz upon the release of their new album Suicide Songs. It's a known fact that homecoming are always the stand-out dates, and there's not many bands who do it better than these guys.
