Charity Soul are delighted to officially announce 2nd Festival of Soul music in the delightful ‘pueblo’ of Señorio de Roda, Murcia, Spain

The festival commences on Friday evening 11th May 2017 and ends on Sunday night 13th May 2018

The programme of events starts on Friday evening with Across The Board soul music from local resident and Charity Soul favourite dj’s and food for all patrons on production of food entitlement tickets for each day

Saturday’s events kicks off with Across The Board music  again from Charity Soul and local dj’s. To complement this,  will be a series of local fantastic 'live' soul singers, and food will be available in the form of BBQ Chicken later in the evening

Sundays programme starting in the afternoon until late, will be again be Across The Board soul delivered by the usual Charity Soul dj's plus local resident dj’s when Paella  will complement the evenings fun.

The second Festival of Soul looks like being bigger and better than the inaugural Festival of Soul held last year. We intend having more 'local' live soul acts in response to the public suggestions made. If you want fun in the sun, across the board soul music in the open air, daytime and evening and friendly company with some of the best dj's on the costa's, then this IS the place to be

As a little pre-festival starter it's a certain Knottla lads SIXTIETH  birthday so we can all rest easy that the bar tab will be on him NOT. I'm given to understand that he's invited everybody from England's Lane, Knottla, plus any old(very) mates who used to dance (lol) with him at a certain dance hall in West Lancashire (Pie Land). If your in Roda around this time please excuse any unusual frollickin from this reverend gentleman20170511_165301.thumb.jpg.aab61b80b46a79520cb81cb0f8fce5b3.jpg

Having just been to Murcia to 'cross the t's and dot the i's, things looking good so far, lots of local soul acts wanting to appear at the second Festival of Soul, which is what the ex pats around the
scene suggested to us last year. The 'live' broadcast for Saturday evening is up and running with Dean Alexanda, who is very excited about the festival and is giving us a 'shout out' courtesy of BIG FM radio from now until the commencement of the event. A live interview at BIG FM took place on Monday 12th between Dean and Terry Hopkinson giving back ground info' about who and what the ethos of Charity Soul is all about

Well the countdown has begun to our second Festival of Soul, and if the on-line bookings in the UK are anything to go by it looks like we are in for a 'blow-out'. We've surpassed last year figure and Eddie in Los Alcazares has done fantastic with local ticket sales. As the choon goes "Gonna Be A Big Thing". Interest for the festival is fantastic with  people from up and down the Costa Calida and Costa Blanca taking up ticket sales. Got to give a big rap to Eddie Lech and Tez Foster who have worked their 'rocks' off to ensure this is a success. The boys from  Ive Got Something Good Orihuela Costa also deserve a mention as without their help we would certainly be struggling. If you've not committed yet get to Senorio de Roda , you'll not regret it.

15 dj's, 5 live soul singers, and BIG FM radio show with Dean Alexanda  all devoting their service's  FREE for our Charity. As the choon says "Are You Ready For This"

Well this is it, as the choon goes 'The Final Countdown', talking to people at the Wardrobe very very excited about festival of Soul, so much so Sammy Seaman is frantically searching for copies of 'The Snake' and 'Tribute' ( which we've told him he can play on Monday lol).

Ticket sales have exceed our expectations and we are looking forward to a fantastic weekend of Soul Music dancing under the stars in the open air. Lots of people now wishing they'd committed to our Festival. Everybody involved has worked their 'rocks' off to make this a success and we're looking to surpass our cancer donation figure of 2017.

 ¡Va a ser un evento brillante!
