About The Event

Friday Soul Nights Return to Accrington. 

Our Upstairs Dark and Soulful Venue the nearest thing to those fabled British Legion Soul Nights. Layout of the room is similar. We offer high quality Sound System. No Feedback set at 80db so music is just loud enough with conversations not impeded. No excessive Base F15 sound card equalises output for perfect Soul music. Last Event was a packer. So let's keep it up. Three exciting guests. Ian Hamilton ( Hammie ) Mick Sikora and Clitheroe Soul Club Neil Grainger. Backed up with residents George Falzon Kevin McCaffrey Kenny Parkinson and myself Hutchy. Cheap drinks tea and coffee available and Tap Water is free. 

Further details to follow.

Wow what a night. Great feedback from a varied selection of folk from locations across Lancashire and beyond. 

Our Top Guest Hammie played a blinding set. Quality

We looked after him. Housed overnight en-suite after a 6 hrs journey. Was just what they needed.  We take good care of the guests. 95% of seats were taken. It was a hot sweaty and very Soulful evening. When folk want to stay and talk about it. After the last record. Think it says a thing about the Event. For those who don't know. An upstairs old School dark and very Soulful. Sounds stem purring at around 80db. Just the ticket. Kenny Parkinson set us underway with George Falzon playing some stunning moder/crossover tracks. Clitheroe Soul Club Neil Grainger played some great Classics with few R&B mixed got the floor moving. Mick Sikora from Rochdale carried on with uptempo brew. The Hammie. Who didn't disapoint. Evening to the close was Kevin McCaffrey an Accrington Legend. Who back in the day. Was asked to take records to the very first Wigan Casino. Also sold many discoveries to Richard Serling. 

A fine night. 

Next up Friday September 1st. 

If you like Old School Venues. This is for you. If your a dancer. Bring a change of tops. It gets warm.

The venue, the djs & tunes, the floor, the people and the mild beer! It was like the 70s.

We will certainly be there on the 1st September. Can't wait. Screenshot_20230805-132104_Gallery.thumb.jpg.9b6d19d9c4d963ee168bb33f017e9976.jpg
