NGUVU
6 piece, Soul / Jazz-Fusion / Funk Band

NGUVU is a Swahili term meaning Power, Force, and Energy. It's also the perfect name for this Manchester collective that blends Jazz Fusion, Funk, Soul, and Hip-Hop.
NGUVU is a genre-blurring Manchester collective that defies the conventional musical norms of their contemporaries. The group was born out of the mind of visionary drummer, composer, and MC Jamal Lewis-Service who provides the bars and the backbeat. Jamal was born in Moss Side, Manchester and grew up within the African and Caribbean community of the city.
Their sound is inspired by The Roots, Vulfpeck, Nubyian Twist, Funky Knuckles, Brand New Heavies, Jamiroquai, and
Minneapolis Style Funk. However, they still manage to maintain a unique identity and sound that sets them apart.

Gorgol Bordello, Streetlight Manifesto, Dropkick Murphys, The Mahones, Manic Street Preachers.
After the initial release of their debut album 'To the Mountain' early 2022 with a hugely successful album launch show, the Mavericks wen't on to play many live shows and festivals throughout 2022 and 2023 such as
FYA Fest, Glaston-Bury, Esk Fest, Whalley Range Fest
and Small World Festival to name a few. You may laugh, you may cry, you may dance till you die, but make sure you do it with the Maverick 7.

Apply for our 'Brand New' Development Deal
We are now offering management services from the very beginning
NO HIDDEN FEES! COMPLETELY FREE!
Managers don't tend to work with Artists/Bands that are in their 'early days' of career. Where you could be brand new to the music scene, still finding your feet, gathering your first few sets of recordings, starting to play local shows or building a fanbase from scratch. Therefore the full Management process is usually brought in during the more established stages, where you will have a great all-round profile to take that extra leap and break into the industry on a wider scale, attracting bigger opportunities in the process.
Everyone knows the music industry is 'WHO YOU KNOW' and this includes you! Getting to a point where professionals are approaching you to play their event is every small artist's dream. This process can take years to build without the right information, guidance and mentorship.
However, for a small number of bands with high potential (from beginner to intermediate level) we are offering the chance to have management onboard to help move things along.
We will invest our time into the smaller bands that we feel will make it, long term.
We will work alongside you on structuring the band into a strict working schedule to reach the next level that you want to achieve, if don't know how to get there on your own or would like some assistance.
ie, Handling; Releases, Music Videos, Radio plays, Press Interviews, PR campaigns, Festivals, Tours, Merch, Budgeting, Paperwork, Signing to PRO's, Publishing and pitching to Labels. (and much more)
Most bands don't know where to start with these advanced tasks on their own and struggle to agree with one another on dealing with day to day band admin duties and management. Or you may find that just 1 or 2 members deal with this section of the band.
That is where
GUILD PRODUCTIONS come in. We can be a helping hand for you, daily.
DON'T WAIT UNTIL IT BECOMES TOO MUCH TO HANDLE!
SEEK OUR HELP NOW!
With our help now, you can jump start your band's career and be ready for the path to success much sooner than expected!
To save your band members from moving in a different direction to one another, why not seek outside advice to restart the vision we all have in common!
