Last night, 14-time Grammy winning global superstar, Alicia Keys, supported by Mercury Prize nominee Lianne La Havas, brought the house down with a dazzling performance at Manchester Cathedral for MTV Crashes Manchester.
 Manchester football stars, Robin Van Persie, Micah Richards, David Silva, Jaxi Garcia and Joe Hart mixed with the likes of Everything Everything, The Courteeners and Max George to watch the spectacular show at the iconic landmark, celebrating Manchester’s long musical heritage and contribution to UK youth culture.
Alicia Keys said: "It was great, I loved it. I’ve been feeling so interestingly different performing these songs. Today I felt so calm, and paced, and right in the zone with the crowd. I loved this show, and what a beautiful venue."
Lianne La Havas said: "The atmosphere was electric..and to share a stage with Alicia Keys...wow"
