About The Event

The Ashton Ukrainian club has gone from strength to strength following the re-launch in 2021 and a move to Saturday night. For 2024 we're looking to continue delivery quality rare and underplayed soul from the residents and ever growing list of outstanding guests.

Speaking of ‘Rare & Underplayed Soul’ we use that phrase to capture what Ashton tries to deliver musically, which is worth expanding upon.

Mainly it's an attempt to move away from the standard music policy strap lines we’re all so used to seeing like; Northern, 60s & 70s, Crossover, Modern, across the board etc. etc. whilst genuinely trying to capture an ethos. The words ‘rare’ and ‘underplayed’ are intended to apply both in their own right and together, it certainly isn't supposed to be limited rare records that are also underplayed……we should have added quality in there too LOL.

In a nutshell you will hear all three combinations of the phrase on any given night at the Ukrainian Club; ‘Rare’ (but not for rarities sake) ‘Underplayed’ (but not because they’re not good enough) and of course ‘Rare & Underplayed’ but, all with one eye on the dancefloor.

We don’t have a music ‘policy’, all our residents & guests are free to express themselves as they wish, which we believe adds to the magic. So simply expect a great night of quality soul music if you ever get the chance to join us at our friendly little club.

Add to that our resident Personal Trainer Stu Cheetham, who will be bringing his all action dancing style and energy to his stint behind the decks, so watch out for that early doors sure to get our regular "early birds" up and at it on the dancefloor!!

Loving this Chris Anderton spin, femme soul perfection, which in parts reminds me of The Rockmasters "raining teardrops"

Once again a new month, brings another busy period, on the Soul Calendar. We cannot thank the Ashton Faithful enough for the overwhelming support and appreciation for what we offer at Ashton Ukrainian Club!!

Our next event Saturday July 20th brings another Quality DJ line up!! Ted Massey is back with us, expect a fine array of 60s/70s Soul, from The Super Rare, to the "it's too good not to play" regardless of monetary value. Chris Dab of Soul Anderton returns for a highly anticipated set, with a dip into the playlists of the Iconic 90s venues, like Bretby and Albrighton, mixed in with a healthy sprinkling of Crossover/70s soul!!

Former Lifeline Resident Karl Chalky White, always has a few surprises in his playlist, with maybe a few unissued gems thrown in for good measure.

All action Personal Trainer Stu Cheetham is chomping at the bit, to get back behind the decks, the usual adrenaline fuelled dancers for those who like to hit the floor early doors!!!

Phil Dunn will be opening proceedings to get you "in the mood" for another five and a half hours of music with that indefinable "it" factor!! We might even shuffle the pack and put "The Finisher" Chris Churm (if you know, you know) earlier on in the night, watch this space!!!

The night runs 7pm-00.30 and just £5 admission pay on the door(bargain)

Check out the event page thread, for all the latest information and sample spins, as we look forward to another busy night!!

Please feel free to RSVP the event, see you there!!
