We do hope that this festival will entice you to descend on sunny Lancashire, and enjoy a fabulous weekend of soulful tunes brought to you by a passionate bunch of people who spread the good word of soul throughout the country every month.
The concept of this weekend was born out of Shaun Robbins’ popular Sunday Soul Selection show on Solar Radio and the idea to bring that show out to the soul fans, and its with this event that a national soul collective brings you this free festival of great soulful music.
At Sponden Derbyshire in October 2006 a successful night was held, and now we aim to build on that success with likeminded souls enjoying a weekend party by the Seaside, and where better than a town like Morecambe.
Many soul weekenders take place annually each month, but not all are provided free of charge, can it be done? Well we hope it can, and I hope you will join us in April to make it an event everyone will be talking about.
Aside form the coach trip on Friday night, all the other events will have free admission at all the venues throughout the weekend.
The North of England has a legacy of good soulful events and we aim to bring the best together over one weekend, with at least six popular soul clubs bringing their brand of music to the seaside.
The fun starts on Friday evening with a coach trip to The Popular Orwell in Wigan. You can book your place on this outing on the the Programme page. However, please don’t delay as this promises to be a sell out.
For Saturday and Sunday we have day/night sessions at 5 local venues with something for everyone. There'll be a splendid roster of talented DJ’s playing quality across the board music from the 60ss right through to the best soulful dance sounds of 2007.
Local DJs and local radio stations will also be represented and so if you like your music on the soul side then you wont want to miss this weekend.
