Soulsville See's The Light Friday 24 Feb

Jamie and Rich (Soulsville International Playboys) are pleased to announce a new venue and a new chapter for the 'Soulsville' night in Leeds starting on Friday 24 February

We're staying in Leeds City Centre and moving to the recently refurbished 'Northern Light' Club on Cross York Street, Leeds, LS2 7EE. We've got the 'Velvet' Bar situated downstairs in this 3 room venue. It's a converted Methodist School Building with plenty of character.

Room holds 250, though we reckon 150 would leave plenty of room for a bit of a boogie. In the summer there are sliding doors which open out into an enclosed courtyard with seating areas. Cloakroom available on entrance. Areas will be provided for record dealers. Just contact us to reserve a table.

We're negotiating Beer promotions at the moment, and our aim is to have certain bottled beers/spirits for £2.00. The bar doesn't have draught beers, and specialise in a wide range of imported bottled beers and spirits.

Times are gonna be 8:00pm - 3:00am. This venue has a music license until 6:00am, so there's plenty of scope for bigger events once the venue is established.

Cost on the door is £4.00 before 9:00pm and £5.00 after.

Access is good off the motorways, and is bang facing Leeds Central Bus/Coach Station. Plenty of well-lit street parking just around the corner near Leeds Parrish [sic] Church (See Map Link) I've been told by the club owner (Who's building a load of apartments on the site next door) that parking will be available later in the year in the multi-storey car-park opposite (currently closes at 11pm) There's also plenty of Holiday/Premier/Travel Taverns lodges etc. within walking distance. The Train station is just over a 5 minute walk.

Music policy is going to be a little bit of everything, with a slight leaning towards the different. People who've been to Soulsville before will know what to expect!

Residents vinyl types as previous: Jamie Hartford, Rich Buckley, Pat Brady and John Parker.

We're really gonna strive to get the best guests available from all the 4 corners of the UK and the continent. There's gonna be some surprises, and this really should put Leeds back on the Rare Soul map; where it deserves to be!

We've got the best minds available working on our artwork and flyers, and these should be available in the very near future.

For all those people who attended 'Soulsville' at The Baby Jupiter, we thank you for you support, and hopefully we can carry on the superb tight-knit atmosphere that the place generated.

We do look forward to seeing you in our new home!
