RNB VS Garage

A concert by RNB VS Garage, a project drawing on R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae, at O2 Academy Leeds, a concert venue on Cookridge Street.

RNB VS Garage is a project whose music draws on R&B, soul, funk, gospel and reggae. The name pairs R&B with garage, so the act's sound is presented as a meeting between the two. These styles share a strong emphasis on vocals and groove, which places the project across several black music traditions.

The concert is held at O2 Academy Leeds, on Cookridge Street. The venue mainly hosts concerts, and its programme is centred on pop and rock music. For listeners who follow R&B, soul, funk, gospel or reggae, the night offers those styles in a venue whose usual bill leans towards pop and rock.
