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 2025 we're looking once again 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.

Mid Summer Madness our Summer Soulstice (sic) at Ashton Ukrainian Club. Saturday June 21st!!

We promised some pretty Special DJ line ups this year and we are delighted to welcome Guy Hennigan as part of his Whistlestop UK tour, Guy along with Keb Darge was synonymous with the 60s newies movement at Stafford TOTW, with so many newly discovered 45s that are now part of the rich tapestry of our scene!!

Lots of interest already as you can imagine!! Add to that Welsh Wizard Steve Thomas hot footing across the Menai Straits with The Crazy Bus in full effect!!

Got a feeling with our two Guest DJs we might hear a few up tempo dittys, like this from Captain Steve Thomas
