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.

April at Ashton Ukrainian Club is looking good already. Saturday April 12th is the date for your diary, as stated club commitments mean we run a week earlier than our normal third Saturday!!

This Month is a Showcase of some amazing DJs in the North West!! 

Tony Mac, Ashton Regular and long time face on the scene, going all the way back to the Halcyon Days at The Pendulum Club in Manchester!! He has some amazing records for the dancers, as ever and always a popular name to include on the line up!!

Another Ashton Regular, Stu Cheetham, Ace Personal Trainer and Drummer, gigging round the North West, is there no end to this man's talents? Nearly forgot a Class DJ, with his all action adrenaline fuelled "you gotta dance" DJ sets!!

Add to that Team Ukrainian resident early doors DJ Phil Dunn who also provides a great opening set and a smiling face(occasionally lol) before he takes your admission fee, which is still an absolute bargain(we think) at £6!!

Mick Howard and Chris Churm complete another quality line up, for The Ashton Faithful, who always make the night what it is, with that indefinable Old School Soul Club Atmosphere!!

The night runs 7pm-00.30 We also have the music piped through to the Lounge/Record Bar Area, sales boxes always welcome!!

Please check back regularly as we constantly add the guest DJ selections on our Soul-Source Event page thread!!

Culcheth Head Honcho Baz Maleady is back with us and is the DJ responsible for today's Monday Banger, to kick start our week. There's a theory in the DJ/collector Fraternity that all the best records are on Yellow Labels?? Case in Point, The Districts WHOOOOSH!!!

With our very own Personal Trainer/Drummer Stu Cheetham ready and raring to go, it should be a Parcel O' Soul (if you know, you know) Stu will be doing an early doors set with a few "left fielders" thrown in the mix. His next selection is an Anthem from The Rare Groove Scene, achingly Soulful, just how we like it!!

Delighted to have Baz Maleady back doing a guest spot. Baz is the original "Dark Horse" mistakenly assumed by some as a DJ purely associated with The Modern Soul Scene? That's only part of his back story, an OG from the early days of Wigan, through the Jazz Funk years and the natural progression in the early 80s of the fledgling Modern Soul Scene. His collection embraces all that and more BUT he has an amazing collection of Classic and Rare Soul 45s, like you wouldn't believe!!

Always Championing the overlooked/underplayed 45s and is well remembered as the driving force of the much missed Saints Club in St Helens and 45s like The Dream Merchants had their "day in the sun" expect the unexpected !!!

Uptempo Stormer for Stu's next selection, hang on to your hats !!!
