Soul At The Ritzy

We’re thrilled to announce the May edition of SOUL AT THE RITZY, accompanied by a fresh look (good work, Lisa) and even fresher guest DJs.

First up is that lad Shaafi, the genius behind the massive HEART OF SOUL events which have been rammed with South London yout’ since early last year. These down and dirty nights are freshening up the scene and bringing loads of new faces in. As well as being a superb and committed dancer, Shaafi has great OVO tunes and will smashing it behind the decks this month.

Next up, we are thrilled to announce Rob Ryan is stepping up for May! Whilst he’s very known in the art world, the SATR crew adore Rob for being one of the most fun, danceable and quality DJs on our scene. (As well as one of the nicest human beings you will ever meet!). Rob was top of our list for our Christmas party, and now he’s returning in time for the good weather for another uplifting, across-the-board rare soul set. In combination with Shaafi, this is going to be a very special night for rare soul lovers who want to DANCE.

Finally, just got to say - great work to the Ritzy - their sound system is up there with the best, super chunky but clear as a bell. 

It’s going to be a great night. Kick-off is 7.30 this month.

See you at the Ritzy.

Jake, Lisa, Donna X

GENERAL INFORMATION....

SOUL AT THE RITZY is a monthly, sociable fun loving across-the-board soul night held in a brilliant venue – the club room at the top of the iconic Ritzy cinema in Brixton, London, just minutes from the tube station.

Music policy is 60s/70s soul, OVO of course.  It is neither a trainspotter's party or an oldies night. 

Your hosts JAKE LINGWOOD, DONNA DRISCOLL, and LISA HURLEY make sure each night packs a punch – and we bring you brilliant guests each month, as well as playing ourselves.

The sound system is top notch, and the venue has another ace up its sleeve – a large balcony overlooking Brixton’s Windrush Square.  It’s a brilliant venue and we’re thrilled/very lucky to have it.

We're now in our third fantastic year, and we’re really excited to have booked up a whole calendar of events for 2024.  (See attached flier)

Regular Thursday nights run from 7pm until midnight and are FREE.  And this year we're really excited to have four Saturday night specials which will run 8pm-2am and will be ticketed.

To keep up to date with all the shenanigans and going on, please join the SOUL AT THE RITZY FACEBOOK GROUP or you can follow our Instagram here.

We'll announce the guest DJs monthly.  So watch this space.
