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.

WOW, WHAT a Weekend!!! After a barnstorming event last Saturday at Ashton Ukrainian Club, we never rest on our Laurels, pushing on and looking forward already to our Saturday August 16th event and the return of Andy Dyson and a healthy scoop of Cyberman Soul from Preston's Gis Southworth.

Meanwhile Team Ukrainian Fixer and non too Shabby DJ Simon Ingham provides our customary Monday Morning Banger and a slice of Philly Soul 60s Style!!

The Summer Season is in full swing and the Soul Calendar rolls on, as we look forward to our Saturday August 16th date at Ashton Ukrainian Club.

Once again as our way of thanks for The Unbelievable support from The Ashton Faithful, we have another Quality DJ Line up for you!!

Andrew Dyson a well known and revered DJ on our scene, a resident at The much missed Lifeline Sessions in all their guises and in the latter years I believe at Soul Essence Weekenders, such is his depth and knowledge of all things Soulful!!

We had a few of the founder members of "The Preston Cybermen" at our July event and we're really pleased to have fellow cyberman Gis Southworth back behind the decks for us!!

Ashton regular and again well known face on the scene, at all the best venues Stephen Morgan will be making his DJ debut for us, look forward to that!!

Stockport's finest Simon Ingham is back from his travels and has some amazing Rare Soul 45s to grace the decks. Should be good, as ever check back regularly via the link for a few quality Sound Bytes for your listening pleasure!!

Team Ukrainian regulars Phil Dunn and Chris Churm complete the line up. We will have an updated flyer for reference real soon!!

The night runs 7pm-00.30 and just £6 admission pay on the door

Mid Seventies Soulful Dancer for Gis Southworth's next selection and a record that reminds me of Buddy Connor's Anthemic "when you're alone"
