New Tricks - Older Musicians Workshops in Lincoln UK!

Northern Soul All Dayer- @ Lincoln Drill Hall - Saturday 11 June

2016 Northern Soul All Dayer - The Re-Union

Saturday 11 June 12noon – 12midnight @ Lincoln Drill Hall

Northern Soul is a phrase coined by writer Dave Godin in 1970, when he noticed football fans from northern England asking for old-fashioned, fast-tempo soul records in his London shop.

Many would have attended the Twisted Wheel in Manchester - a super-cool club for Mods.

But as American black music began to develop in the direction of funk, the clientele clung to the more gritty sounds of the late 1960s.

When the Wheel closed, a series of clubs in the north of England and Midlands had all-nighters. Then Wigan Casino opened and the scene went massive all over the country particularly in Lincolnshire.

Between 1979 and 1981 many Lincolnshire venues, inclusing Lincoln Drill Hall, hosted Northern Soul All-Nighters and was one of the go to destinations those prepared to travel around the UK just to dance.

Now, for the first time in 34 years the original line-up of Drill Hall DJs are back again, playing the original sounds in this legendary venue.

Northern, rare, classics, funk, R’n’B, soul, crossover and modern.

Two rooms, 40 DJs, special guests, record bars.

Tickets: £15 advance (£18 on the door) from
