We’re not looking for another venue at the moment to be honest. -
Really sorry but Orrell St James club will not be reopening when the current lockdown ends. The owners of the club are permanently closing 20 clubs locally and St James is unfortunately one of them. On behalf of myself, Lisa, Blunny, Tony & Ann we would like to express our thanks to everyone who has supported the venue over the years and those DJs who spun the sounds for us, much appreciated. No doubt there will be many other casualties of the present situation, let’s hope the venues that survive will attract enough support to see them through the tough times ahead. Take care everyone and thanks once again for all the support, we’ll see you through the window 🌞✊😁

The Sink Soul Club returns on Sunday 15th August in the basement of Heebie Jeebies, 80–82 Seel Street, Liverpool for a fantastic afternoon of 60s Soul, Rhythm & Blues, Jamaican sounds, British Beat and much more in a superb air conditioned room below a historic Liverpool Club! 3pm till 9pm, we are hoping to continue where we left off before the present situation halted the good times! DJs are: Stan Evans, Pete Everett, Dennis Haw and Tony Brookes……entry is £5 on the door…..be early as it’s liable to be a busy afternoon!

We have been told that the Magnet Bar in Liverpool which is the home of the Sink Soul Club has been sold and will cease to be a music venue after Sunday 18th February. The last ever event at the Sink club will be on Sunday 18th February, we would like to thank everyone who has attended the Sink over the years and have made it one of the best Sunday afternoon venues in the North West. Another historic club gone, the Magnet was due to celebrate its 60th anniversary this year so this closure is a double blow. We will be carrying on with the spirit of the Sink when we find a suitable venue--we have received a number of offers and will let everyone know when details are finalised. Thanks. -

Hi there. We're planning a trip to Vancouver and Victoria this Summer, just wondered if anyone knows any good venues, clubs, record stores, bars etc in the area? We've got a lot planned already including a tour of the Rockies but we've got some free time in both Vancouver and Victoria so if anyone has any suggestions we would be most grateful. Thanks in anticipation...Tony.

I have been asked by Stan Evans to post the following information: The Sink Soul Club will once again open its doors in the Summer of 2015. The club, now known as the Magnet, has been taken over by new owners who have undertaken a tasteful refurbishment of the premises and who wish to start up the legendary soul events once again at the club. The refurbishment has included the installation of a state of the art sound system in the venue and all works have been in keeping with the historic character of the club. Three dates have been booked, with more to follow... Sunday 17th May---Sunday Soul Session running from 3pm---9pm. Sunday 19th July---Sunday Soul Session running from 3pm---9pm. Sunday 30th August---Mini Nighter running from 8pm---4am. DJs for the two Sunday Soul Sessions will be Stan Evans, Pete Everett, Dennis Haw and Tony Brookes. For the mini nighter there will be additional guest DJs, to be arranged. More information will be posted as soon as it is available on here and in the events section, there will also be information and invitations posted on Facebook. The Sink is one of the last remaining original soul clubs in the North of England, this is an exciting opportunity to be a part of what will be a fantastic revival in this iconic basement club!
