Not only is the city home to two world-class football teams, Manchester United and Manchester City, but it has also nurtured the music genes from Joy Division to Oasis - independent record shops and the legendary Band on the Wall in the Northern Quarter continue to write the rhythms of the 'city that never sleeps'.
