Lowton Anniversary Special Culcheth Andy Dyson

Get set for some stonkin’ nights coming your way IN 2024 at CULCHETH, starting with our annual LOWTON CIVIC ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL!

The LOWTON ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL is a celebration of the venue that created so many great memories and friendships for many of us and one which remains with us, as we continue to feature and play rare Northern and Modern Soul, in the ‘Spirit of Lowton’

Join us on SATURDAY 3rd FEB as we welcome one of the countries TOP RARE SOUL DJ’s ANDY DYSON, along with one of the most liked and respected guys on the scene, KARL ‘CHALKY’ WHITE! Add to that some of the original LOWTON dj's including KEV MURPHY, STEVE PLUMB, BAZ MALEEDY and ROBBO and you have the makings of a great night out!

Take a minute to check out the flyer and please feel free to share, let’s make the LOWTON ANNIVERSARY SPECIAL on FEB 3rd at CULCHETH something special…

Looking forward to a rare foray into the modern room.  With so many seasoned “Modern” veterans in attendance I’ll be a wee bit nervous hoping I can meet their high standards

No worries there Chalky, you'll knock it outta the park...

Is that a  "WEE" pun Chalky LOL

As Lord Maleedy says - you'll smash it pal 

Not been well enough to go out for such a long time. Needless to say. I am so looking forward to this one. 

The North West is the place to be in February, some quality events, as ever in the area and Anniversary time at Culcheth this coming saturday is promising to be a cracker !!

I read somewhere Andy Dyson had this covered up as Cleveland Robinson many years ago.

I know Simon recently picked up a copy, so there's a chance of it getting a spin this Saturday

Andy's rare soul radar went as far as Barbados for this one.

IT'S OFFICIAL!...

Scientists at the University of Exeter have published a report that music “should be considered as a part of a lifestyle approach to maintain the brain!” So, with that in mind (no pun intended ) join us on SATURDAY FEB 3rd as we help ‘Maintain Your Brain’ with a night of quality Rare and Modern Soul as we celebrate memories of LOWTON CIVIC HALL at CULCHETH…

Feelin’ good, now officially, doin’ you good… See You Soon 

I'm sure I've seen this beauty on a Chalky playlist in the past. A regular spin on the soul radio shows back in the day, Richard Searling featured it on a regular basis.

A soulful masterpiece to my ears. See what other high quality tunes Chalky has in his locker this Saturday.

I've just noticed this is a picture of the CD and not the original vinyl copy. Schoolboy error on my part but the track speaks for it's self.

Exciting weekend coming up - Lowton was such an amazing event back in the 90s and it's hard to believe now that a Friday night soul event could have been such a smash with massive attendance, I'm not sure what the average numbers were but Kev could fill us in I'm sure (note to self to ask him this weekend!)

It was an honour to DJ for the Lowton team right through til the end and I'm flipping through the playbox to remind myself of the fantastic choons that hit the decks (yes my box was rather influenced by Lowton)

Here's one:

 

 

Robbo always loved playing it at Lowton, I wonder if the big lad will give this a spin on Saturday or even t'other side.

Looking forward to another great anniversary night in the spirit of Lowton . It’s going to be a packer so arrive in time for a superb night of Lowton memories

Lotsa great feedback coming through for Saturday, looks like there's a few birthday celebrations, so best be early to get your seats, not that you'll be in them for long with the DJ's enticing peeps to the floor, with tunes like this...

Another Biggie from the Lowton period and a good chance of either Simon or Robbo playing this!!

Might give this a spin 

And this 

Not heard this for a while needs a spin 

Still digging in boxes 

I recall this absolutely ramming the floor at Lowton as it did everywhere back in the day - of course it suffered from over-exposure as many great tracks do!!  but perhaps a revival on Saturday would be welcomed 

This always went down well at Lowton https://youtu.be/XiTvP458VPo?si=iFlkdYyZeOjbxaIk

It is in the box mate for the weekend, superb it is

Having been a regular at Lowton and also getting behind the decks on a few occasions I am looking forward to the weekend ands celebrating such an iconic venue.  Hope to see many of you there.
